Abstract
Abstract
We use the large-scale structure galaxy data (LSS) from the BOSS and eBOSS surveys, in
combination with abundances information from Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN), to measure two values
of the Hubble expansion rate, H
0 = 100h [ km s-1 Mpc-1], each of them
based on very different physical processes. One is a (traditional) late-time-background
measurement, based on determining the BAO scale and using BBN abundances on baryons for
calibrating its absolute size (BAO+BBN). This method anchors H
0 to the (standard) physics of
the sound horizon scale at pre-recombination times. The other is a newer, early-time based
measurement, associated with the broadband shape of the power spectrum. This second method anchors
H
0 to the physics of the matter-radiation equality scale, which also needs BBN information for
determining the suppression of baryons in the power spectrum shape (shape+BBN). Within the
ΛCDM model, we find very good consistency among these two H
0's: BAO+BBN (+growth)
delivers H
0 = 67.42+0.88
-0.94 (67.37+0.86
-0.95) km s-1Mpc-1, whereas the
shape+BBN (+growth) delivers H
0 = 70.1+2.1
-2.1 (70.1+1.9
-2.1) km s-1
Mpc-1, where `growth' stands for information from the late-time-perturbations captured by the
growth of structure parameter. These are the tightest sound-horizon free H
0 constraints from
LSS data to date.
As a consequence, to be viable any ΛCDM extension proposed to address the so-called “Hubble
tension” needs to modify consistently not only the sound horizon scale physics, but also the
matter-radiation equality scale, in such a way that both late- and early-based H
0's return
results mutually consistent and consistent with the high H
0 value recovered by the standard
cosmic distance ladder (distance-redshift relation) determinations.
