Cosmological constraints from Radial Baryon Acoustic Oscillation measurements and Observational Hubble data
Abstract
We use the Radial Baryon Acoustic Oscillation (RBAO) measurements, distant type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), the observational data (OHD) and the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) shift parameter data to constrain cosmological parameters of CDM and XCDM cosmologies and further examine the role of OHD and SNe Ia data in cosmological constraints. We marginalize the likelihood function over by integrating the probability density to obtain the best fitting results and the confidence regions in the plane.With the combination analysis for both of the {\rm }CDM and XCDM models, we find that the confidence regions of 68.3%, 95.4% and 99.7% levels using OHD+RBAO+CMB data are in good agreement with that of SNe Ia+RBAO+CMB data which is consistent with the result of Lin et al's work. With more data of OHD, we can probably constrain the cosmological parameters using OHD data instead of SNe Ia data in the future.
