Testing the Consistence of Gamma Ray Burst Data-set and Supernovae Union2

Abstract

In this paper, we test the consistency of Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) Data-set and Supernovae Union2 (SNU2) via the so-called {\it multi-dimensional consistency test} under the assumption that $\Lambda$CDM model is a potentially correct cosmological model. We find that the probes are inconsistent with $1.456\sigma$ and $85.47$ in terms of probability. With this observation, it is concluded that GRBs can be combined with SNU2 to constrain cosmological models.
