AbstractWe perform a Bayesian model selection analysis for interacting scenarios of dark matter and modified holographic Ricci dark energy (MHRDE) with linear interacting terms. We use a combination of some of the latest cosmological data such as type Ia supernovae, cosmic chronometers, the local value of the Hubble constant, baryon acoustic oscillations measurements and cosmic microwave background through the angular scale of the sound horizon at last scattering. We find moderate/strong evidence against all the MHRDE interacting scenarios studied with respect to $$\Lambda $$ Λ CDM when the full joint analysis is considered.

In this paper, a holographic dark energy model, dubbed Ricci dark energy, is confronted with cosmological observational data from type Ia Supernovae (SN Ia), baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) and cosmic microwave background (CMB). By using maximum likelihood method, we found that Ricci dark energy model is a viable candidate of dark energy model with the best fit parameters: Ωm0 = 0.34 ± 0.04, α = 0.38 ± 0.03 with 1σ error. Here, α is a dimensionless parameter related to Ricci dark energy ρR and Ricci scalar R, i.e. ρR ∝ αR.

AbstractGaussian processes (GP) provide an elegant and model-independent method for extracting cosmological information from the observational data. In this work, we employ GP to perform a joint analysis by using the geometrical cosmological probes such as Supernova Type Ia (SN), Cosmic chronometers (CC), Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO), and the H0LiCOW lenses sample to constrain the Hubble constant $$H_0$$ H 0 , and reconstruct some properties of dark energy (DE), viz., the equation of state parameter w, the sound speed of DE perturbations $$c^2_s$$ c s 2 , and the ratio of DE density evolution $$X = \rho _\mathrm{de}/\rho _\mathrm{de,0}$$ X = ρ de / ρ de , 0 . From the joint analysis SN+CC+BAO+H0LiCOW, we find that $$H_0$$ H 0 is constrained at 1.1% precision with $$H_0 = 73.78 \pm 0.84\ \hbox {km}\ \hbox {s}^{-1}\,\hbox {Mpc}^{-1}$$ H 0 = 73.78 ± 0.84 km s - 1 Mpc - 1 , which is in agreement with SH0ES and H0LiCOW estimates, but in $$\sim 6.2 \sigma $$ ∼ 6.2 σ tension with the current CMB measurements of $$H_0$$ H 0 . With regard to the DE parameters, we find $$c^2_s < 0$$ c s 2 < 0 at $$\sim 2 \sigma $$ ∼ 2 σ at high z, and the possibility of X to become negative for $$z > 1.5$$ z > 1.5 . We compare our results with the ones obtained in the literature, and discuss the consequences of our main results on the DE theoretical framework.

ABSTRACT We present a measurement of the Hubble constant (H0) and other cosmological parameters from a joint analysis of six gravitationally lensed quasars with measured time delays. All lenses except the first are analysed blindly with respect to the cosmological parameters. In a flat Λ cold dark matter (ΛCDM) cosmology, we find $H_{0} = 73.3_{-1.8}^{+1.7}~\mathrm{km~s^{-1}~Mpc^{-1}}$, a $2.4{{\ \rm per\ cent}}$ precision measurement, in agreement with local measurements of H0 from type Ia supernovae calibrated by the distance ladder, but in 3.1σ tension with Planck observations of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). This method is completely independent of both the supernovae and CMB analyses. A combination of time-delay cosmography and the distance ladder results is in 5.3σ tension with Planck CMB determinations of H0 in flat ΛCDM. We compute Bayes factors to verify that all lenses give statistically consistent results, showing that we are not underestimating our uncertainties and are able to control our systematics. We explore extensions to flat ΛCDM using constraints from time-delay cosmography alone, as well as combinations with other cosmological probes, including CMB observations from Planck, baryon acoustic oscillations, and type Ia supernovae. Time-delay cosmography improves the precision of the other probes, demonstrating the strong complementarity. Allowing for spatial curvature does not resolve the tension with Planck. Using the distance constraints from time-delay cosmography to anchor the type Ia supernova distance scale, we reduce the sensitivity of our H0 inference to cosmological model assumptions. For six different cosmological models, our combined inference on H0 ranges from ∼73 to 78 km s−1 Mpc−1, which is consistent with the local distance ladder constraints.

The Impact

Abstract The results of joint analyses of available cosmological data have motivated an important debate about a possible detection of a non-zero spatial curvature. If confirmed, such a result would imply a change in our present understanding of cosmic evolution with important theoretical and observational consequences. In this paper we discuss the legitimacy of carrying out joint analyses with the currently available data sets and explore their implications for a non-flat universe and extensions of the standard cosmological model. We use a robust tension estimator to perform a quantitative analysis of the physical consistency between the latest data of Cosmic Microwave Background, type Ia supernovae, Baryonic Acoustic Oscillations and Cosmic Chronometers. We consider the flat and non-flat cases of the ΛCDM cosmology and of two dark energy models with a constant and varying dark energy EoS parameter. The present study allows us to better understand if possible inconsistencies between these data sets are significant enough to make the results of their joint analyses misleading, as well as the actual dependence of such results with the spatial curvature and dark energy parameterizations. According to our results, we conclude that a joint analysis in the context of a non-flat universe including the CMB data is only possible if the CMB Lens is taken into account, otherwise, it potentially leads to misleading conclusions.

We investigate the cosmological constraints on the variable modified Chaplygin gas (VMCG) model from the latest observational data: Union2 dataset of Type Ia supernovae (SNIa), the observational Hubble data (OHD), the baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) and the cosmic microwave background (CMB) data. By using the Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method, we obtain the mean values of parameters in the flat model: [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. Furthermore, we investigate the thermodynamical properties of VMCG model at apparent horizon, event horizon and particle horizon respectively.

ABSTRACT Dark matter (DM) as a pressureless perfect fluid provides a good fit of the standard Λ cold dark matter (ΛCDM) model to the astrophysical and cosmological data. In this paper, we investigate two extended properties of DM: a possible time dependence of the equation of state of DM via Chevallier–Polarski–Linder parametrization, wdm = wdm0 + wdm1(1 − a), and the constant non-null sound speed $\hat{c}^2_{\rm s,dm}$. We analyse these DM properties on top of the base ΛCDM model by using the data from Planck cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature and polarization anisotropy, baryonic acoustic oscillations (BAOs), and the local value of the Hubble constant from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). We find new and robust constraints on the extended free parameters of DM. The most tight constraints are imposed by CMB+BAO data, where the three parameters wdm0, wdm1, and $\hat{c}^2_{\rm s,dm}$ are, respectively, constrained to be less than 1.43 × 10−3, 1.44 × 10−3, and 1.79 × 10−6 at 95 per cent CL. All the extended parameters of DM show consistency with zero at 95 per cent CL, indicating no evidence beyond the CDM paradigm. We notice that the extended properties of DM significantly affect several parameters of the base ΛCDM model. In particular, in all the analyses performed here, we find significantly larger mean values of H0 and lower mean values of σ8 in comparison to the base ΛCDM model. Thus, the well-known H0 and σ8 tensions might be reconciled in the presence of extended DM parameters within the ΛCDM framework. Also, we estimate the warmness of DM particles as well as its mass scale, and find a lower bound: ∼500 eV from our analyses.

ABSTRACT We use H ii starburst galaxy apparent magnitude measurements to constrain cosmological parameters in six cosmological models. A joint analysis of H ii galaxy, quasar angular size, baryon acoustic oscillations peak length scale, and Hubble parameter measurements result in relatively model-independent and restrictive estimates of the current values of the non-relativistic matter density parameter $\Omega _{\rm m_0}$ and the Hubble constant H0. These estimates favour a 2.0–3.4σ (depending on cosmological model) lower H0 than what is measured from the local expansion rate. The combined data are consistent with dark energy being a cosmological constant and with flat spatial hypersurfaces, but do not strongly rule out mild dark energy dynamics or slightly non-flat spatial geometries.

ABSTRACT We present an improved measurement of the Hubble constant (H0) using the ‘inverse distance ladder’ method, which adds the information from 207 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) at redshift 0.018 &lt; z &lt; 0.85 to existing distance measurements of 122 low-redshift (z &lt; 0.07) SNe Ia (Low-z) and measurements of Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAOs). Whereas traditional measurements of H0 with SNe Ia use a distance ladder of parallax and Cepheid variable stars, the inverse distance ladder relies on absolute distance measurements from the BAOs to calibrate the intrinsic magnitude of the SNe Ia. We find H0 = 67.8 ± 1.3 km s−1 Mpc−1 (statistical and systematic uncertainties, 68 per cent confidence). Our measurement makes minimal assumptions about the underlying cosmological model, and our analysis was blinded to reduce confirmation bias. We examine possible systematic uncertainties and all are below the statistical uncertainties. Our H0 value is consistent with estimates derived from the Cosmic Microwave Background assuming a ΛCDM universe.

Abstract In this paper, we propose a new phenomenological two parameter parameterization of q(z) to constrain barotropic dark energy models by considering a spatially flat Universe, neglecting the radiation component, and reconstructing the effective equation of state (EoS). This two free-parameter EoS reconstruction shows a non-monotonic behavior, pointing to a more general fitting for the scalar field models, like thawing and freezing models. We constrain the q(z) free parameters using the observational data of the Hubble parameter obtained from cosmic chronometers, the joint-light-analysis Type Ia Supernovae (SNIa) sample, the Pantheon (SNIa) sample, and a joint analysis from these data. We obtain, for the joint analysis with the Pantheon (SNIa) sample a value of q(z) today, $$q_0=-0.51\begin{array}{c} +0.09 \\ -0.10 \end{array}$$q0=-0.51+0.09-0.10, and a transition redshift, $$z_t=0.65\begin{array}{c} +0.19 \\ -0.17 \end{array}$$zt=0.65+0.19-0.17 (when the Universe change from an decelerated phase to an accelerated one). The effective EoS reconstruction and the $$\omega '$$ω′–$$\omega $$ω plane analysis point towards a transition over the phantom divide, i.e. $$\omega =-1$$ω=-1, which is consistent with a non parametric EoS reconstruction reported by other authors.
