Cosmological parameters from SDSS and WMAP

Max Tegmark, +70 more
- 01 Jan 2004 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured cosmological parameters using the three-dimensional power spectrum P(k) from over 200,000 galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) in combination with WMAP and other data.
Journal ArticleDOI

The end of unified dark matter

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that unified dark matter models produce oscillations or exponential blowup of the dark matter power spectrum inconsistent with observation, and that 99.999% of the previously allowed parameter space is excluded, leaving essentially only the standard $\ensuremath{\Lambda}mathrm{CDM}$ limit allowed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non-parametric mass reconstruction of A1689 from strong lensing data with SLAP

TL;DR: In this paper, the mass distribution in the central area of the cluster A1689 by fitting over 100 multiply lensed images with the nonparametric Strong Lensing Analysis Package (SLAP, Diego et al. 2004).
Journal ArticleDOI

CMBFIT: Rapid WMAP likelihood calculations with normal parameters

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a method for ultra-fast confrontation of the WMAP cosmic microwave background observations with theoretical models, implemented as a publicly available software package called CMBfit, useful for anyone wishing to measure cosmological parameters by combining WMAP with other observations.
