Local determination of the Hubble constant and the deceleration parameter
David Camarena, Valerio Marra
Abstract
The authors provide a determination of the Hubble constant based on the local universe and independent of any cosmological assumptions. The result is in strong tension with what the cosmic microwave background predicts assuming the standard model of cosmology is valid
