Observational Constraints on the Nature of Dark Energy: First Cosmological Results from the ESSENCE Supernova Survey
Open accessAbstract
We present constraints on the dark energy equation-of-state parameter, w = P /(ρ c 2 ), using 60 SNe Ia from the ESSENCE supernova survey. We derive a set of constraints on the nature of the dark energy assuming a flat universe. By including constraints on (Ω M , w ) from baryon acoustic oscillations, we obtain a value for a static equation-of-state parameter w = -1.05 (stat 1 σ) ± 0.13 (sys) and Ω M = 0.274 (stat 1 σ) with a best-fit χ 2 /dof of 0.96. These results are consistent with those reported by the Supernova Legacy Survey from the first year of a similar program measuring supernova distances and redshifts. We evaluate sources of systematic error that afflict supernova observations and present Monte Carlo simulations that explore these effects. Currently, the largest systematic with the potential to affect our measurements is the treatment of extinction due to dust in the supernova host galaxies. Combining our set of ESSENCE SNe Ia with the first-results Supernova Legacy Survey SNe Ia, we obtain a joint constraint of w = -1.07 (stat 1 σ) ± 0.13 (sys), Ω M = 0.267 (stat 1 σ) with a best-fit χ 2 /dof of 0.91. The current global SN Ia data alone rule out empty (Ω M = 0), matter-only Ω M = 0.3, and Ω M = 1 universes at >4.5 σ. The current SN Ia data are fully consistent with a cosmological constant.

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.
