Constraining Ω M and Dark Energy with Gamma-Ray Bursts

Abstract

An E γ, jet ∝ E relationship with a small scatter for current gamma-ray burst (GRB) data was recently reported, where E γ, jet is the beaming-corrected gamma-ray energy and E is the ν F ν peak energy in the local observer frame. By considering this relationship for a sample of 12 GRBs with known redshift, peak energy, and break time of afterglow light curves, we constrain the mass density of the universe and the nature of dark energy. We find that the mass density Ω M = 0.35 (at the 1 σ confidence level) for a flat universe with a cosmological constant, and the w parameter of an assumed static dark energy equation of state w = -0.84 (1 σ). Our results are consistent with those from Type Ia supernovae. A larger sample established by the upcoming Swift satellite is expected to provide further constraints.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
