Improving Photometric Redshift Estimates with Training Sample Augmentation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Large imaging surveys will rely on photometric redshifts (photo- z 's), which are typically estimated through machine-learning methods. Currently planned spectroscopic surveys will not be deep enough to produce a representative training sample for Legacy

Revisiting the Oldest Stars as Cosmological Probes: New Constraints on the Hubble Constant

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Despite the tremendous advance of observational cosmology, the value of the Hubble constant ( H _0 ) is still controversial (the so-called “Hubble tension”) because of the inconsistency between local/late-time measurements and those derived from the ...

The Structure and Interpretation of Cosmology: Part I - General Relativistic Cosmology

open access: yes, 2004
The purpose of this work is to review, clarify, and critically analyse modern mathematical cosmology. The emphasis is upon mathematical objects and structures, rather than numerical computations. This paper concentrates on general relativistic cosmology.

The Curious Concept That Almost Nobody Seemed to Care About at First: Virtual Particles in the Post‐War Period**

open access: yesBerichte zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, EarlyView.
Abstract Short‐lived, unobservable, and not subject to the usual rules of conservation of energy and momentum, virtual particles—an integral part of the conceptual framework of quantum field theory (QFT)—exhibit a number of curious characteristics which, in recent decades, have in part fueled important discussions about their ontological status ...

Status Report on the Chicago-Carnegie Hubble Program (CCHP): Measurement of the Hubble Constant Using the Hubble and James Webb Space Telescopes

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present the latest results from the Chicago-Carnegie Hubble Program to measure the Hubble constant, using data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). The overall program aims to calibrate three independent methods: (1) tip of the red giant branch

Observational constraints on soft dark energy and soft dark matter: Challenging ΛCDM cosmology

open access: yesNuclear Physics B, 2023
Soft cosmology is an extension of standard cosmology allowing for a scale-dependent equation-of-state (EoS) parameter in the dark sectors, which is one of the properties of soft materials in condensed-matter physics, that may arise either intrinsically ...

The Truncated Lognormal Distribution as a Luminosity Function for SWIFT-BAT Gamma-Ray Bursts

open access: yesGalaxies, 2016
The determination of the luminosity function (LF) in Gamma ray bursts (GRBs) depends on the adopted cosmology, each one characterized by its corresponding luminosity distance.

Average observational quantities in the timescape cosmology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We examine the properties of a recently proposed observationally viable alternative to homogeneous cosmology with smooth dark energy, the timescape cosmology.

Exposing and Challenging “Grit” in Physics Education

open access: yesScience Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In STEM education, grit is increasingly the focus of research, with scholars and educators seeking to develop and test interventions that will enhance persistence. As part of the special issue Centering Affect and Emotion Toward Justice and Dignity in Science Education, in this paper, we use interviews with 12 white physics faculty to show ...
