Robust Dark Energy Constraints from Supernovae, Galaxy Clustering, and 3 yr Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe Observations
Open accessAbstract
Type Ia supernova (SN Ia), galaxy clustering, and cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy data provide complementary constraints on the nature of the dark energy in the universe. We find that the 3 yr Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe ( WMAP ) observations give a CMB shift parameter of R ≡ 1/2 dz '/ H ( z ') = 1.70 ± 0.03. Using this new measured value of the CMB shift parameter, together with the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) measurement from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), and SN Ia data from the HST /GOODS program and the first-year Supernova Legacy Survey, we derive model-independent constraints on the dark energy density ρ X ( z ) and the cosmic expansion rate H ( z ). We also derive constraints on the dark energy equation of state w X ( z ) = w 0 + w ' z (with cutoff at z = 2) and w X ( a ) = w 0 + (1 - a ) w a . We find that current data provide slightly tighter constraints on ρ X ( z ) and H ( z ) as free functions in redshift and roughly a factor of 2 improvement in constraining w X ( z ). A cosmological constant remains consistent with the data; however, uncertainties remain large for model-independent constraints of dark energy. A significant increase in the number of observed SNe Ia between redshifts of 1 and 2, complemented by improved BAO and weak-lensing cosmography measurements (as expected from the JEDI mission concept for the Joint Dark Energy Mission ), will be required to dramatically tighten model-independent dark energy 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.
