Planck priors for dark energy surveys
Pia Mukherjee, Martin Kunz, David Parkinson +1
Although cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy data alone cannot constrain simultaneously the spatial curvature and the equation of state of dark energy, CMB data provide a…
Comment on `Tainted evidence: cosmological model selection versus fitting', by Eric V. Linder and Ramon Miquel (astro-ph/0702542v2)
Andrew R Liddle, Pier Stefano Corasaniti, Martin Kunz +3
In astro-ph/0702542v2, Linder and Miquel seek to criticize the use of Bayesian model selection for data analysis and for survey forecasting and design. Their discussion is based on…
Optimising Baryon Acoustic Oscillation Surveys - I: Testing the concordance LCDM cosmology
David Parkinson, Chris Blake, Martin Kunz +3
We optimize the design of future spectroscopic redshift surveys for constraining the dark energy via precision measurements of the baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO), with particul…
When can the Planck satellite measure spectral index running?
Cédric Pahud, Andrew R. Liddle, Pia Mukherjee +1
We use model selection forecasting to assess the ability of the Planck satellite to make a positive detection of spectral index running. We simulate Planck data for a range of assu…
Dark Energy in Chains
David Parkinson, Bruce A. Bassett, Edmund J. Copeland +2
Dark energy affects the CMB through its perturbations and affects both CMB and Sn-Ia through its background evolution. Using recent CMB and Sn-Ia data sets, together with the most…
Did the dark energy always have a large Compton wavelength?
Bruce A. Bassett, Martin Kunz, David Parkinson +1
Until now all well-studied dark energy models proposed have very large Compton wavelengths, at all time and hence show no clustering on small scales. Evidence again…
