Intermediate evolution using SNIa, and BAO

Abstract

We study the intermediate evolution model and show that, compared with the recent study of a power-law evolution, the intermediate evolution is a better description of the low-redshift regime supported by observations from type Ia supernovae and BAO. We found also that recent data suggest that the intermediate evolution is as good a fit to this redshift range as the $\Lambda$CDM model.
