The Carnegie-Chicago Hubble Program. VIII. An Independent Determination of the Hubble Constant Based on the Tip of the Red Giant Branch
Wendy L. Freedman,Barry F. Madore,Dylan Hatt,Taylor J. Hoyt,In Sung Jang,Rachael L. Beaton,Christopher R. Burns,Myung Gyoon Lee,Andrew J. Monson,Jillian R. Neeley,Mark M. Phillips,Jeffrey A. Rich,Mark Seibert +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, a new and independent determination of the local value of the Hubble constant based on a calibration of the Tip of the Red Giant Branch (TRGB) applied to Type Ia supernovae (SNeIa) is presented.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a VIJHK absolute calibration of the tip of the red giant (TRGB) method based on observations of TRGB stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC),grounded on detached eclipsing binaries (DEBs).

TL;DR: The Carnegie-Chicago Hubble Program as discussed by the authors uses RR Lyrae variables, the tip of the red giant branch (TRGB), and Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) to obtain a 3 per cent measurement of the Hubble constant using alternative methods to the traditional Cepheid distance scale.
