In this note, we consider the observational constraints on some cosmological models by using the 307 Union type Ia supernovae (SNIa), the 32 calibrated gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) at z>1.4, the updated shift parameter R from WMAP 5-year data (WMAP5), and the distance parameter A of the measurement of the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) peak in the distribution of SDSS luminous red galaxies with the updated scalar spectral index ns from WMAP5. The tighter constraints obtained here update the ones…

Latest cosmological constraints on Cardassian expansion models including the updated gamma-ray bursts

We constrain the Cardassian expansion models from the latest observations, including the updated Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), which are calibrated using a cosmology independent method from the Union2…

Constraints on cosmological models and reconstructing the acceleration history of the Universe with gamma-ray burst distance indicators

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been regarded as standard candles at very high redshift for cosmology research. We have proposed a new method to calibrate GRB distance indicators with Type Ia supernova…

Constraints on the generalized Chaplygin gas model including gamma-ray bursts via a Markov Chain Monte Carlo approach

A strategy to measure the dark energy equation of state using the H ii galaxy Hubble function and X-ray active galactic nuclei clustering: preliminary results

We explore the possibility of setting stringent constraints to the Dark Energy equation of state using alternative cosmic tracers like: (a) the Hubble relation using HII galaxies, which can be…

Calibration of GRB Luminosity Relations with Cosmography

For the use of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) to probe cosmology in a cosmology-independent way, a new method has been proposed to obtain luminosity distances of GRBs by interpolating directly from the…

Constraining a New Type of Dark Energy Model from Present Observations

A new type of dark energy (DE) model is proposed, in which the equation of state of DE ωde is a simple function of the fractional energy density Ωde instead of the redshift z, which can help to study the essential properties and nature of DE.

Dark energy cosmology with the alternative cosmic microwave background data

Recently, in a series of works by Liu and Li (L&L), they claimed that there exists a timing asynchrony of -25.6 ms between the spacecraft attitude and radiometer output timestamps in the original raw…

A Cosmology-Independent Calibration of Gamma-Ray Burst Luminosity Relations and the Hubble Diagram

An important concern in the application of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) to cosmology is that the calibration of GRB luminosity/energy relations depends on the cosmological model, due to the lack of a…

Cosmological constraints from the SDSS luminous red galaxies

We measure the large-scale real-space power spectrum P(k) using luminous red galaxies (LRGs) in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and use this measurement to sharpen constraints on cosmological…

Gamma-ray bursts as standard candles to constrain the cosmological parameters

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are among the most powerful sources in the Universe: they emit up to 1054 erg in the hard x-ray band in a few tens of seconds. The cosmological origin of GRBs has been…
