We apply the type Ia supernovae union dataset and the baryon acoustic oscillations data at z = 0.2 and z = 0.35 to constrain variable Chaplygin gas (VCG) model as the unification of dark matter and dark energy. It is shown that the confidence levels for VCG model parameters are [Formula: see text]. And it indicates that the values of transition redshift and current deceleration parameter are: [Formula: see text]. In addition, we plot the evolution trajectory of the VCG model in the statefinder parameter r–s plane and show the discrimination between this scenario and other dark energy models.

AbstractTo investigate whether f(R) gravity can relieve current $$H_0$$ H 0 and $$\sigma _8$$ σ 8 tensions, we constrain the Hu-Sawicki f(R) gravity with Planck-2018 cosmic microwave background and redshift space distortions observations. We find that this model fails to relieve both $$H_0$$ H 0 and $$\sigma _8$$ σ 8 tensions, and that its two typical parameters $$\log _{10}f_{R0}$$ log 10 f R 0 and n are insensitive to other cosmological parameters. Combining the cosmic microwave background, baryon acoustic oscillations, Type Ia supernovae, cosmic chronometers with redshift space distortions observations, we give our best constraint $$\log _{10}f_{R0}<-6.75$$ log 10 f R 0 < - 6.75 at the $$2\sigma $$ 2 σ confidence level.

The Universe

The type Ia supernovae observational data are used to estimate the parameters of a cosmological model with cold dark matter and the Chaplygin gas. This exotic gas, which is characterized by a negative pressure varying with the inverse of density, represents in this model the dark energy responsible for the acceleration of the Universe. The Chaplygin gas model depends essentially on four parameters: the Hubble constant, the velocity of the sound of the Chaplygin gas, the curvature of the Universe and the fraction density of the Chaplygin gas and the cold dark matter. The Bayesian parameter estimation yields [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. These and other results indicate that a Universe completely dominated by the Chaplygin gas is favoured, what reinforces the idea that the Chaplygin gas may unify the description for dark matter and dark energy, at least as the type Ia supernovae data are concerned. A closed and accelerating Universe is also favoured. The Bayesian statistics indicates that the Chaplygin gas model is more likely than the standard cosmological constant (ΛCDM) model at 55.3% confidence level when an integration on all free parameters is performed. Assuming the spatially flat curvature, this percentage mounts to 65.3%. On the other hand, if the density of dark matter is fixed at zero value, the Chaplygin gas model becomes more preferred than the ΛCDM model at 91.8% confidence level. Finally, the hypothesis of flat Universe and baryonic matter (Ωb0=0.04) implies a Chaplygin gas model preferred over the ΛCDM at a confidence level of 99.4%.

Combining cosmic microwave (CMB) background data from Planck satellite data, Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) measurements and Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) data, we obtain the bounds on total neutrino masses [Formula: see text] with the approximation of degenerate neutrino masses and for three dark energy models: the cosmological constant ([Formula: see text]CDM) model, a phenomenological emergent dark energy (PEDE) model and a model-independent quintessential parametrization (HBK). The bounds on the sum of neutrino masses [Formula: see text] depend on the dark energy (DE) models. In the HBK model, we confirm the conclusion from some previous work that the quintessence prior of DE tends to tighten the cosmological constraint on [Formula: see text]. On the other hand, the PEDE model leads to larger [Formula: see text] and a nonzero lower bound. Besides, we also explore the correlation between three different neutrino hierarchies and DE models.

In this work, we aim to show the possibilities of the variable speed of light (VSL) theory in explaining the type Ia supernovae (SNe) observations without introducing dark energy. The speed of light is assumed to be scale factor-dependent, which is the most popular assumption in VSL theory. We show the modified calculation of the distance modulus and the validity of the redshift-scale factor relation in VSL theory. Three different models of VSL are tested SNe data-sets with proper constraints on the model parameters. The comparison of the three models and flat ΛCDM in distance modulus is showed. Some basic problems and the difficulties of the confirmation of the VSL theory are also discussed.
