Direct determination of Hubble parameter using type IIn supernovae

We introduce a novel approach, a Dense Shell Method (DSM), for measuring distances for cosmology. It is based on original Baade idea to relate absolute difference of photospheric radii with photospheric velocity. We demonstrate that this idea works: the new method does not rely on the Cosmic Distance Ladder and gives satisfactory results for the most luminous Type IIn Supernovae. This allows one to make them good primary distance indicators for cosmology. Fixing correction factors for illustration, we obtain with this method the median distance of $\approx 68^{+19}_{-15}$($68\%$CL) Mpc to SN 2006gy and median Hubble parameter $79^{+23}_{-17}$($68\%$CL) km/s/Mpc.
