The alignment of galaxies at the Baryon Acoustic Oscillation scale

open access: yesThe Open Journal of Astrophysics, 2023
Massive elliptical galaxies align pointing their major axis towards each other in the structure of the Universe. Such alignments are well-described at large scales through a linear relation with respect to the tidal field of the large-scale structure. At

Unknowns and unknown unknowns: from dark sky to dark matter and dark energy

open access: yes, 2010
Answering well-known fundamental questions is usually regarded as the major goal of science. Discovery of other unknown and fundamental questions is, however, even more important.

Assessing observational constraints on dark energy

open access: yesPhysics Letters B
Observational constraints on time-varying dark energy (e.g., quintessence) are commonly presented on a w0-wa plot that assumes the equation of state of dark energy strictly satisfies w(z)=w0+waz/(1+z) as a function of the redshift z.

Cosmology with mirror dark matter II: Cosmic Microwave Background and Large Scale Structure

open access: yes, 2004
This is the second paper of a series devoted to the study of the cosmological implications of the existence of mirror dark matter. The parallel hidden mirror world has the same microphysics as the observable one and couples the latter only ...

Newest Measurements of Cosmic Curvature with BOSS/eBOSS and DESI DR1 Baryon Acoustic Oscillation Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Determining the cosmic curvature (Ω _K ) independent of cosmological models plays a key role in revealing the background physics of our Universe. In this Letter, we propose an improved method to measure the cosmic curvature using the observations of ...

Observational constraints for cubic gravity theory based on third order contractions of the Riemann tensor

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields
The paper studies different observational features in the case of a specific cubic gravity theory, based on third order contractions of the Riemann tensor.

Low-redshift constraints on the Hubble constant from the baryon acoustic oscillation “standard rulers” and the gravitational wave “standard sirens”

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2019
The multi-messenger observations of GW170817 indicated a new independent measurement of the Hubble constant ($$H_0$$ H0 ). We obtain the low-redshift cosmological constraints on $$H_0$$ H0 by combining this gravitational wave measurement with the ...

Probing a Steep EoS for Dark Energy with latest observations

open access: yes, 2017
We present a parametrization for the Dark Energy Equation of State "EoS" which has a rich structure, performing a transition at pivotal redshift $z_T$ between the present day value $w_0$ to an early time $w_i=w_a+w_0\equiv w(z\gg0)$ with a steepness ...

Monopole Fluctuations in Galaxy Surveys

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Galaxy clustering provides a powerful way to probe cosmology. This requires understanding of the background mean density of galaxy samples, which is estimated from the survey itself by averaging the observed galaxy number density over the angular ...
