Abstract | The Hubble tension and attempts to resolve it by modifying the physics of (or at) recombination motivate finding ways to determine H-0 and the sound horizon at the epoch of baryon decoupling r(d) in ways that rely neither on a recombination model nor on late-time Hubble data. In this work, we investigate what one can learn from the current and future BAO data when treating r(d) and H-0 as independent free parameters. It is well known that baryon acoustic oscillations (BAOs) give exquisite constraints on the product r(d)H(0). We show here that imposing a moderate prior on omega(m)h(2) breaks the degeneracy between r(d) and H-0. Using the latest BAO data, including the recently released the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey Data Release 16, along with a omega(m)h(2) prior based on the Planck best-fit ? cold dark matter (?CDM) model, we find r(d) = 143.7 2.7 Mpc and H-0 = 69.6 1.8 km s(-1) Mpc(-1). BAO data prefers somewhat lower r(d) and higher H-0 than those inferred from Planck data in a ?CDM model. We find similar values when combing BAO with the Pantheon supernovae, the Dark Energy Survey Year 1 galaxy weak lensing, Planck or SPTPol cosmic microwave background lensing, and the cosmic chronometer data. We perform a forecast for the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) and find that, when aided with a moderate prior on omega(m)h(2), DESI will measure r(d) and H-0 without assuming a recombination model with an accuracy surpassing the current best estimates from Planck. |
