Abstract

We show that the 32 H(z)H(z) data from cosmic chronometers have overestimated uncertainties and make use of a Bayesian method to correct and reduce it. We then use the corrected data to constrain flat Λ\LambdaCDM and OΛ\LambdaCDM parameters. For the flat Λ\LambdaCDM model, we got as result H0=67.1±4.0H_{0} = 67.1\pm 4.0 km s1^{-1} Mpc1^{-1} and Ωm=0.3330.057+0.041\Omega _{m} = 0.333 ^{+0.041}_{-0.057}. While for the OΛ\LambdaCDM model, we found H0=67.2±4.8H_{0} = 67.2\pm 4.8 km s1^{-1} Mpc1^{-1}, Ωm=0.36±0.16\Omega _{m} = 0.36\pm 0.16 and ΩΛ=0.710.28+0.36\Omega _{\Lambda} =0.71 ^{+0.36}_{-0.28}. These results goes from 22%22\% up to 28%28\% uncertainty reduction when compared to the constraints of the both uncorrected models.
