A novel standard candle: collapsing axion stars

Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Haoran Di, Lijing Shao, Zhu Yi, Shi-Bei Kong, | Summary: The Hubble constant, $H_0$, is a crucial parameter in cosmology. However, various cosmic observations have produced differing posterior values for $H_0$, resulting in what is referred to as the $H_0$ tension. To resolve this discrepancy, utilizing other […]
