Constraining the Dark Energy Equation of State with Cosmic Voids
Our universe is observed to be accelerating due to the dominant dark energy with negative pressure. The dark energy equation of state (w) holds a key to understanding the ultimate fate of the universe. The cosmic voids behave like bubbles in the universe so that their shapes must be quite sensitive to the background cosmology. Assuming a flat universe and using the priors on the matter density ...
متن کاملConstraining dark energy from the abundance of weak gravitational lenses
We examine the prospect of using the observed abundance of weak gravitational lenses to constrain the equation-of-state parameter w = p/ρ of the dark energy. Dark energy modifies the distance-redshift relation, the amplitude of the matter power spectrum, and the rate of structure growth. As a result, it affects the efficiency with which dark-matter concentrations produce detectable weak-lensing...
متن کاملDark energy with polytropic equation of state
Equation of state parameter plays a significant role for guessing the real nature of dark energy. In the present paper polytropic equation of state p = ωρn is chosen for some of the kinematical Λ-models viz., Λ ∼ (ȧ/a), Λ ∼ ä/a and Λ ∼ ρ. Although in dust cases (ω = 0) closed form solutions show no dependency on the polytropic index n, but in non-dust situations some new possibilities are opene...
متن کاملCosmic Chronometers: Constraining the Equation of State of Dark Energy. I: H(z) Measurements
We present new determinations of the cosmic expansion history from red-envelope galaxies. We have obtained for this purpose high-quality spectra with the Keck-LRIS spectrograph of red-envelope galaxies in 24 galaxy clusters in the redshift range 0.2 < z < 1.0. We complement these Keck spectra with high-quality, publicly available archival spectra from the SPICES and VVDS surveys. We improve ove...
متن کاملThe dark energy equation of state
We perform a study of cosmic evolution with an equation of state parameter ω(t) = ω0 + ω1(tḢ/H) by selecting a phenomenological Λ model of the form, Λ̇ ∼ H. This simple proposition explains both linearly expanding and inflationary Universes with a single set of equations. We notice that the inflation leads to a scaling in the equation of state parameter, ω(t), and hence in equation of state. In ...
