The 1998 discovery of the cosmic acceleration with supernovae was recently awarded the 2011 Nobel Prize in Physics. More observations continue to support this accelerated expansion…
Fitting Cosmological Data Baryon DEDGP  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
J. Moldenhauer, K. Stone, and L. Engelhardt
Post a comment | Relations
Measurements of the baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO or Baryon), as standard rulers, support the accelerated expansion of the universe (cosmic acceleration). This simulation…
Fitting Cosmological Data Hz DEDGP  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
J. Moldenhauer, K. Stone, and L. Engelhardt
Post a comment | Relations
Direct and indirect measurements of the Hubble Parameter, H(z), support the accelerated expansion of the universe (cosmic acceleration). The Hubble Parameter represents the expansion…
Fitting Cosmological Data CMB DEDGP  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
J. Moldenhauer, K. Stone, and L. Engelhardt
Post a comment | Relations
The Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation measurements offer some of the most powerful constraints in cosmology for supporting the accelerated expansion of the universe (cosmic…
