N2 - It is possible to explain the discrepancy (tension) between the local measurement of the cosmological parameter H0 (theHubble constant) and its value derived from the Planck-mission measurements of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB)by considering contamination of the CMB by emission from some medium surrounding distant extragalactic sources, such asextremely cold coarse-grain (grey) dust. Though being distant, such a medium would still be in the foreground with respectto the CMB, and, as any other foreground, it would alter the CMB power spectrum. This could contribute to the dispersionof CMB temperature fluctuations. By generating random samples of CMB with different dispersions, we have checked thatthe increased dispersion leads to a smaller estimated value of H0, the rest of the cosmological model parameters remainingfixed. This might explain the reduced value of the Planck-derived parameter H0 with respect to the local measurements.
