Mechanism

Jordan-frame Hubble constant H_phys = H_E / √P_0 where H_E is the Einstein-frame value (Planck CMB inferred 67.4 km/s/Mpc) and P_0 = 0.851. Conformal-frame mapping in cluster paper DCT-COS-01.

Derivation

Jordan-frame Hubble constant H_phys = H_E / √P_0 where H_E is the Einstein-frame value (Planck CMB inferred 67.4 km/s/Mpc) and P_0 = 0.851. Conformal-frame mapping in cluster paper DCT-COS-01.

The closed-form prediction is

$$ \text{predicted} = H_E / √P_0 = 73.019 km/s/Mpc $$

against the measurement 73.04 ± 1.04 (SH0ES), giving residual 0.02σ match.

Python verification

The verification script for this observable is cosmology_tests.py. Run it with python3 cosmology_tests.py to reproduce the canonical DCT result against the public-archive measurement source listed above (Riess et al. 2022 (SH0ES).).
