Calculation of the expansion rate of the universe, the density of dark energy in it and the study of the Hubble Tension, which is among the most important unsolved problems in today’s cosmology

A known disagreement in today’s cosmology concerns the universe’s expansion rate – the “Hubble Tension”, which arises due to different measurement methods leading to different results. In this study, the values of Hubble’s constant (the universe’s expansion rate), the dark energy and mass density in the universe are calculated. An LSQ algorithm fitted redshift and distance data of 1a supernovae …

Using network centrality measures as predictors of gene drive deployment outcomes

Gene drives are genetic constructs with super-Mendelian inheritance that can spread engineered alleles in wild populations to suppress disease vectors and invasive species, with deployment programs to begin within a decade. We developed a network-based model of gene drive spread with an arbitrary number of populations connected by gene flow. Using generative network models, we identified network centrality measures of …
