Impact of CMB low- EE polarization data on dark energy parameterizations

Shubham Barua, Shantanu Desai

Measurement of the optical depth to reionization () is largely driven by the large-scale EE polarization data of CMB (). Removing the low- EE data p…

Probing cosmic anisotropy with galaxy clusters and supernovae

Shubham Barua, Sujit K. Dalui, Shantanu Desai

Using CDM and Padé-(2,1) cosmography, we study directional variations in the Hubble constant, , using galaxy cluster and Type Ia Supernovae (from Pantheon Plus) by the hemi…

Testing the cosmic distance duality relation using model-independent approach

Shubham Barua, Sujit K. Dalui, Rikiya Okazaki +1

In this work, we test the cosmic distance duality relation (CDDR) using the arbitrary redshift pivot Padé-(2,1) expansion methodology developed in arXiv:2509.16196. This approach a…

Cosmological Constraints on Neutrino Masses in a Second-Order CPL Dark Energy Model

Shubham Barua, Shantanu Desai

Recent DESI results indicate a strong preference for dynamical dark energy (DE) when baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) measurements are combined with supernovae (SNe) and cosmic mi…

On frequentist confidence intervals in a non-Gaussian regime

Shubham Barua, Shantanu Desai, Mauricio Lopez-Hernandez +1

We study frequentist confidence intervals based on graphical profile likelihoods (Wilks' theorem, likelihood integration), and the Feldman-Cousins (FC) prescription, a generalisati…

Constraints on Dark Energy Models Using Late Universe Probes

Shubham Barua, Shantanu Desai

We use late Universe probes - Type Ia Supernovae from the PantheonPlus compilation, Quasars, and Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Data Release 1 (DR1) BAO data - along w…

Determination of Hubble constant from Megamaser Cosmology Project using Profile Likelihood

Shubham Barua, Vyaas Ramakrishnan, Shantanu Desai

The Megamaser Cosmology Project inferred a value for the Hubble constant given by km/sec/Mpc. This value was obtained using Bayesian inference by marginalizing…

Effect of Peak Absolute Magnitude of Type Ia Supernovae and Sound Horizon Values on Hubble Tension using DESI results

Shubham Barua, Shantanu Desai

We apply data-motivated priors on the peak absolute magnitude of Type Ia supernovae () and the sound horizon at the drag epoch (), to study how the degeneracy affec…
