Cosmological Constraints from Hubble parameter H(z)H(z) and SN Ia observations

preprint2008arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper, we use a set of observational H(z)H(z) data (OHD) to constrain the ΛΛCDM cosmology. This data set can be derived from the differential ages of the passively evolving galaxies. Meanwhile, the A\mathcal {A}-parameter, which describes the Baryonic Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) peak, and the newly measured value of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) shift parameter R\mathcal {R} are used to present combinational constraints on the same cosmology. The combinational constraints favor an accelerating flat universe while the flat ΛΛCDM cosmology is also analyzed in the same way. We obtain a result compatible with that by many other independent cosmological observations. We find that the observational H(z)H(z) data set is a complementarity to other cosmological probes.
