Are Galaxy Clusters Suggesting an Accelerating Universe Independent of SNe Ia and Gravity Metric Theory?
J. A. S. Lima, R. F. L. Holanda, J. V. Cunha
A kinematic method to access cosmic acceleration based exclusively on the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect (SZE) and X-ray surface brightness data from galaxy clusters is proposed. By usi…

Kinematic Constraints to the Transition Redshift from SNe Ia Union Data
J. V. Cunha
The kinematic approach to cosmological tests provides a direct evidence to the present accelerating stage of the universe which does not depend on the validity of general relativit…

Simplified Quartessence Cosmology
J. A. S. Lima, J. V. Cunha, J. S. Alcaniz
We propose a new class of accelerating world models unifying the cosmological dark sector (dark matter and dark energy). All the models are described by a simplified version of the…
