A Hubble Diagram for Quasars
The cosmological model is at present not tested between the redshift of the farthest observed supernovae (z ∼ 1.4) and that of the Cosmic Microwave Background (z ∼1,100). Here we introduce a new method to measure the cosmological parameters: we show that quasars can be used as “standard candles” by employing the non-linear relation between their intrinsic UV and X-ray emission as an absolute di...
متن کاملHubble Diagram Dispersion From Large-Scale Structure
We consider the effects of large structures in the Universe on the Hubble diagram. This problem is treated non-linearly by considering a Swiss Cheese model of the Universe in which under-dense voids are represented as negatively curved regions of space-time. Exact expressions for luminosity distances and redshifts are used to investigate the non-linear effects of structure on the magnitudes of ...
متن کاملAn updated Gamma Ray Bursts Hubble diagram
Gamma ray bursts (GRBs) have recently attracted much attention as a possible way to extend the Hubble diagram to very high redshift. To this aim, the luminosity (or isotropic emitted energy) of a GRB at redshift z must be evaluated from a correlation with a distance independent quantity so that one can then solve for the luminosity distance DL(z) and hence the distance modulus μ(z). Averaging o...
متن کاملCalibrating the self-thinning frontier
Calibration of the self-thinning frontier in even-aged monocultures is hampered by scarce data and by subjective decisions about the proximity of data to the frontier. We present a simple model that applies to observations of the full trajectory of stand mean diameter across a range of densities not close to the frontier. Development of the model is based on a consideration of the slope s = ln(...
متن کاملSelf-calibrating Probability Forecasting
In the problem of probability forecasting the learner’s goal is to output, given a training set and a new object, a suitable probability measure on the possible values of the new object’s label. An on-line algorithm for probability forecasting is said to be well-calibrated if the probabilities it outputs agree with the observed frequencies. We give a natural nonasymptotic formalization of the n...
