Improved Cosmological Constraints from New, Old and Combined Supernova Datasets

M. Kowalski, D. Rubin, G. Aldering +67

We present a new compilation of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), a new dataset of low-redshift nearby-Hubble-flow SNe and new analysis procedures to work with these heterogeneous compi…

Detection of the Baryon Acoustic Peak in the Large-Scale Correlation Function of SDSS Luminous Red Galaxies

D. J. Eisenstein, I. Zehavi, D. W. Hogg +45

We present the large-scale correlation function measured from a spectroscopic sample of 46,748 luminous red galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. The survey region covers 0.7…

The Linear Theory Power Spectrum from the Lyman-alpha Forest in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

P. McDonald, U. Seljak, R. Cen +12

We analyze the SDSS Ly-alpha forest P_F(k,z) measurement to determine the linear theory power spectrum. Our analysis is based on fully hydrodynamic simulations, extended using hydr…
