New Constraints on the Variable Equation of State Parameter from X-Ray Gas Mass Fractions and SNe Ia

Abstract

Recent measurements are suggesting that we live in a flat Universe and that its present accelerating stage is driven by a dark energy component whose equation of state may evolve in time. Assuming two different parameterizations for the function $\omega (z)$, we constrain their free parameters from a joint analysis involving measurements from X-Ray luminosity of galaxy clusters and SNe type Ia data.
