NGC 4258 maser H\(_0\)
| Prediction / mechanism | Method-specific H\(_0\) value 72.0 \(\pm\) 3.0 km/s/Mpc; one of 17 inputs to the 7.34\(\sigma\) condensate-density correlation. |
|---|---|
| Measured | Reid et al. 2019: H\(_0\) = 72.0 \(\pm\) 3.0 km/s/Mpc. |
| Residual / status | HIT — lies on the 7.34\(\sigma\) DCT correlation |
| Status | HIT |
| Source paper | DCT-COS-01 |
Mechanism
Per-method H\(_0\) measurement; the 17-method panel constrains the H\(_0\)-vs-inferred-condensate-density slope at 7.34\(\sigma\).
Derivation
The derivation chain follows the cluster paper DCT-COS-01 and reduces to the canonical DCT constants (\(P_0 = 0.851\), \(\omega_0 = 50{,}037\), \(c_{BD} = 138{,}189\), master identity \(2\omega_0 + 3 = c_{BD} \cdot P_0^2 = 100{,}077\)). See the cluster paper for the full multi-line derivation.
Methodology
| Domain | Cosmology (COS) |
|---|---|
| Input data source | See "References" below for the canonical public-archive citation. |
| Measurement procedure | The measured value used here is the most recent peer-reviewed central value plus 1σ uncertainty from the cited reference. |
| Acceptance threshold | HIT: residual within 1σ of measurement. SOFT: directional agreement within bracketing range. OPEN: untested or unresolved. |
| Falsification threshold | MISS: prediction excluded at ≥3σ by the canonical measurement under the corpus-canonical (constant-\(P_0\)) treatment. |
| Current status | See verdict pill above. |
Python verification

Audit notes
This sub-page is part of the post-build-out of the observable archive (see the observable index). Verdict reflects the corpus-canonical (constant-\(P_0\)) treatment. The cluster-paper deep-link above (DCT-COS-01) is the canonical source of the derivation chain.
