Abstract

Theory of the physics of the early hot universe leads to a prediction of baryon acoustic oscillations that has received confirmation from the pair-wise separations of galaxies in samples of hundreds of thousands of objects. Evidence is presented here for the discovery of a remarkably strong individual contribution to the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) signal at z=0.068, an entity that is given the name Ho'oleilana. The radius of the 3D structure is 155/h_75 Mpc. At its core is the Bootes supercluster. The Sloan Great Wall, CfA Great Wall, and Hercules complex all lie within the BAO shell. The interpretation of Ho'oleilana as a BAO structure with our preferred analysis implies a value of the Hubble constant of 76.9+8.2-4.8 km/s/Mpc.
