The Cosmic Energy Inventory
Open accessAbstract
We present an inventory of the cosmic mean densities of energy associated with all the known states of matter and radiation at the present epoch. The observational and theoretical bases for the inventory have become rich enough to allow estimates with observational support for the densities of energy in some 40 forms. The result is a global portrait of the effects of the physical processes of cosmic evolution.

“…−0.78 at 95% (Bennett 2003a); the bound w = −1.02+0.13 −0.19 is obtained from the Type Ia supernova Hubble diagram under the assumption of flat space curvature (Riess et al. 2004) 4We also write Ho = 100h km s −1 Mpc−1, where conve- nient, but all entries in the inventory in Table 1 assume h = 0.7.”

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.
