Estimating the uncorrelated dark energy evolution in the Planck era

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

The equation of state (EOS), w(z)w(z), is the most important parameter of dark energy. We reconstruct the evolution of this EOS in a model-independent way using the latest cosmic microwave background (CMB) data from Planck and other observations, such as type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), the baryonic acoustic oscillation measurements (SDSS, 6dF, BOSS, and WiggleZ), and the Hubble parameter value H(z)H(z). The results show that the EOS is consistent with the cosmological constant at the 2σ2σ confidence level, not preferring a dynamical dark energy. The uncorrelated EOS of dark energy constraints from Planck CMB data are much tighter than those from the WMAP 9-year CMB data.
