The cosmological validation of the Lo-Sym refresh constant ? at the cosmic scale employs publicly available data from the Planck 2018 Legacy Release and the BICEP/Keck 2021 data release. Planck data were retrieved from the Planck Legacy Archive (https://pla.esac.esa.int) and are released under the European Space Agency’s Planck Data Policy. All Planck results are based on observations obtained with Planck (http://www.esa.int/Planck), an ESA science mission with instruments and contributions funded by ESA Member States and NASA. The BICEP/Keck 2021 data were downloaded from the NASA LAMBDA (Legacy Archive for Microwave Background Data Analysis) (https://lambda.gsfc.nasa.gov) and are in the public domain under NASA’s Open Data Policy. The authors acknowledge the Planck Collaboration, the BICEP/Keck Collaboration, ESA, and NASA for making these resources freely available to the scientific community.
