There are two different "Ashmore cosmologies" presented in the linked pages, wrt the Hubble relationship:
-a> a Hubble constant that is proportional to the 'average' density of electrons in 'intergalactic space'.
-b> a Hubble constant that is a combination of fundamental constants.
The second is marginally consistent with recent determinations of H
0, but inconsistent with a non-linear Hubble relationship, such as one that includes a non-zero 'deceleration parameter'. As there are now thousands (?) of observations of high-z supernovae, and as neither webpage addresses these observations, it would seem that -b> only marginally matches the observations for low redshift galaxies.
The first may match observations, but the webpage does not present anything on the extent to which H
0 varies with 'average' electron density in 'intergalactic space'. From the information presented, it seems that the observed value of H
0 should vary between ~12 and ~1200 km/s per Mpc (vs the HST Key Project Team's result of ~71 km/s per Mpc). AFAIK, this variation in the value of H
0, among galaxies, does not match the observations.
