Cosmological Constraints from Multiple Probes in the Dark Energy Survey

DES Collaboration, T. M. C. Abbott, A. Alarcon +166

The combination of multiple observational probes has long been advocated as a powerful technique to constrain cosmological parameters, in particular dark energy. The Dark Energy Su…

BAO from angular clustering: optimization and mitigation of theoretical systematics

K. C. Chan, M. Crocce, A. J. Ross +58

We study the methodology and potential theoretical systematics of measuring Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) using the angular correlation functions in tomographic bins. We calib…

Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Measurement of the Baryon Acoustic Oscillation scale in the distribution of galaxies to redshift 1

The Dark Energy Survey Collaboration, T. M. C. Abbott, F. B. Abdalla +109

We present angular diameter distance measurements obtained by locating the BAO scale in the distribution of galaxies selected from the first year of Dark Energy Survey data. We con…

Cosmological Constraints on Radion Evolution in the Universal Extra Dimension Model

K. C. Chan, M. -C. Chu

The constraints on the radion evolution in the Universal Extra Dimension (UED) model from Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) and Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) data are studied. In the…

CMB Constraint on Radion Evolution in the Brane World Scenario

K. C. Chan, M. -C. Chu

In many versions of brane model, the modulus field of extra dimensions, the radion, could have cosmological evolution, which induces variation of the Higgs vacuum expectation value…

Constraining the Variation of G by Cosmic Microwave Background Anisotropies

K. C. Chan, M. -C. Chu

We use the Cosmic Microwave Background Anisotropies (CMBA) power spectra to constrain the cosmological variation of gravitational constant G. It is found that the sensitivity of CM…
