Cosmic microwave background and large-scale structure constraints on a simple quintessential inflation model

Rogerio Rosenfeld, Joshua A. Frieman

We derive constraints on a simple quintessential inflation model, based on a spontaneously broken Phi^4 theory, imposed by the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe three-year data…

The 8 o'clock Arc: A Serendipitous Discovery of a Strongly Lensed Lyman Break Galaxy in the SDSS DR4 Imaging Data

Sahar S. Allam, Douglas L. Tucker, Huan Lin +4

We report on the serendipitous discovery of the brightest Lyman Break Galaxy (LBG) currently known, a galaxy at z=2.73 that is being strongly lensed by the z=0.38 Luminous Red Gala…

The Peculiar SN 2005hk: Do Some Type Ia Supernovae Explode as Deflagrations?

M. M. Phillips, W. Li, J. A. Frieman +41

We present extensive u'g'r'i'BVRIYJHKs photometry and optical spectroscopy of SN 2005hk. These data reveal that SN 2005hk was nearly identical in its observed properties to SN 2002…

Primordial non-Gaussianity and Dark Energy constraints from Cluster Surveys

Emiliano Sefusatti, Chris Vale, Kenji Kadota +1

Galaxy cluster surveys will be a powerful probe of dark energy. At the same time, cluster abundance is sensitive to any non-Gaussianity of the primordial density field. It is there…

The shape of the SDSS DR5 galaxy power spectrum

Will J. Percival, Robert C. Nichol, Daniel J. Eisenstein +14

We present a Fourier analysis of the clustering of galaxies in the combined Main galaxy and Luminous Red Galaxy (LRG) Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 5 (DR5) sample. T…

Cosmological Constraints from the SDSS Luminous Red Galaxies

M Tegmark, D Eisenstein, M Strauss +64

We measure the large-scale real-space power spectrum P(k) using luminous red galaxies (LRGs) in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and use this measurement to sharpen constraints…
