abstract
The first James Webb Space Telescope ({\it JWST}) Near InfraRed Camera (NIRCam) imaging in the field of the galaxy cluster PLCK G165.7+67.0 ($z=0.35$) uncovered a Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) at $z=1.78$, called ``SN H0pe." Three different images of this one SN were detected as a result of strong gravitational lensing, each one traversing a different path in spacetime, thereby inducing a relative delay in the arrival of each image. Follow-up {\it JWST} observations of all three SN images enabled photometric and rare spectroscopic measurements of the two relative time delays. Following strict blinding protocols which oversaw a live unblinding and regulated post-unblinding changes, these two measured time delays were compared to the predictions of seven independently constructed cluster lens models to measure a value for the Hubble constant, $H_0=71.8^{+9.2}_{-8.1}$ km s$^{-1}$ Mpc$^{-1}$. The range of admissible $H_0$ values predicted across the lens models limits further precision, reflecting the well-known degeneracies between lens model constraints and time delays. It has long been theorized that a way forward is to leverage a standard candle, but this has not been realized until now. For the first time, the lens models are evaluated by their agreement with the SN absolute magnifications, breaking degeneracies and producing our best estimate, $H_0=75.7^{+8.1}_{-5.5}$ km s$^{-1}$ Mpc$^{-1}$. This is the first precision measurement of $H_0$ from a multiply-imaged SN Ia and only the second from any multiply-imaged SN.

The impact of Hawking radiation from primordial black holes on recombination and the Hubble tension
PBH evaporation at ΩPBH≈1e-3 ΩC delays recombination (Δz≈64) and boosts CMB-inferred H0 by ~9%, enough to nominally resolve the Hubble tension, though full CMB fits require lower densities.
