Tip of the Red Giant Branch

These are just some references and unstructured notes at this point.

Tip of the Red Giant Branch as a Distance Indicator

TGRB method – another method useful in measuring the Hubble constant H0, in addition to the cosmic distance ladder, inverse distance ladder, megamasers, H0liCOW time-delay gravitational lensing, gravitational waves, CMB, etc.
