Firefly (Fitting IteRativEly For Likelihood analYsis): a full spectral fitting code

David M. Wilkinson, Claudia Maraston, Daniel Goddard +2

We present a new spectral fitting code, Firefly, for deriving the stellar population properties of stellar systems. Firefly is a chi-squared minimisation fitting code that fits com…

A 6% measurement of the Hubble parameter at : direct evidence of the epoch of cosmic re-acceleration

Michele Moresco, Lucia Pozzetti, Andrea Cimatti +7

Deriving the expansion history of the Universe is a major goal of modern cosmology. To date, the most accurate measurements have been obtained with Type Ia Supernovae and Baryon Ac…
