High Albedos of Low Inclination Classical Kuiper Belt Objects
M. J. Brucker, W. M. Grundy, J. A. Stansberry +4
We present observations of thermal emission from fifteen transneptunian objects (TNOs) made using the Spitzer Space Telescope. Thirteen of the targets are members of the Classical…
Model-Independent Distance Measurements from Gamma-Ray Bursts and Constraints on Dark Energy
Yun Wang
Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRB) are the most energetic events in the Universe, and provide a complementary probe of dark energy by allowing the measurement of cosmic expansion history that…
Figure of Merit for Dark Energy Constraints from Current Observational Data
Yun Wang
Choosing the appropriate figure of merit (FoM) for dark energy (DE) constraints is key in comparing different DE experiments. Here we show that for a set of DE parameters {f_i}, it…
Planck priors for dark energy surveys
Pia Mukherjee, Martin Kunz, David Parkinson +1
Although cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy data alone cannot constrain simultaneously the spatial curvature and the equation of state of dark energy, CMB data provide a…
Differentiating dark energy and modified gravity with galaxy redshift surveys
Yun Wang
The observed cosmic acceleration today could be due to an unknown energy component (dark energy), or a modification to general relativity (modified gravity). If dark energy models…
Observational Bounds on Modified Gravity Models
Antonio De Felice, Pia Mukherjee, Yun Wang
Modified gravity provides a possible explanation for the currently observed cosmic accelaration. In this paper, we study general classes of modified gravity models. The Einstein-Hi…
