Context: Planetary Nebula distance scales often suffer for model dependent solutions. Model independent trigonometric parallaxes have been rare. Space based trigonometric parallaxes are now available for a larger sample using the second…
We perform a consistency check of DESI DR2 BAO constraints ($D_M/r_d, D_H/r_d)$ by reconstructing the same quantities from DES supernovae (SNe) in bins with the same effective redshift $z_{\textrm{eff}} \in \{ 0.510, 0.706, 0.934 \}$ and a…
This paper introduces a signal strength-based direction of arrival (DOA) estimation approach for directional sensors that explicitly accounts for missed detections. In traditional phase-based DOA estimation frameworks, negative information…
We measure the effective distance to z=0.35, D_V(0.35), from the overall shape of the spherically-averaged two-point correlation function of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 7 (DR7) luminous red galaxy (LRG) sample. We find…
We have observed the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect in a sample of five moderate-redshift clusters with the Ryle Telescope, and used them in conjunction with X-ray imaging and spectral data from ROSAT and ASCA to measure the Hubble constant.…
We introduce a novel and scalable Bayesian framework for multivariate-density-density regression (DDR), designed to model relationships between multivariate distributions. Our approach addresses the critical issue of distributions residing…
We use Genetic Algorithms to extract information from several cosmological probes, such as the type Ia supernovae (SnIa), the Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) and the growth rate of matter perturbations. This is done by implementing a…
Estimates of $H_0$ from Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect (SZE) and X-ray surface brightness of galaxy clusters depends on the underlying cosmology. In the current $\Lambda$CDM flat cosmology, a possible technique to broke the degenerescency on the…
A new generation of terrestrial gravitational wave detectors is currently being planned for the next decade, and it is expected to detect most of the coalescences of compact objects in the universe with masses up to a thousand times the…
Our real universe is locally inhomogeneous. Dyer and Roeder introduced the smoothness parameter $\alpha$ to describe the influence of local inhomogeneity on angular diameter distance, and they obtained the angular diameter distance-redshift…

The angular diameter distance of lens, $D_{Aol}$, of strong gravitational lensing systems has been claimed as a cosmic standard ruler. The first measurements for this distance were recently obtained to two well-known systems: B1608+656 and…
One of the fundamental hypotheses in observational cosmology is the validity of the so-called cosmic distance-duality relation (CDDR). In this paper, we perform Monte Carlo simulations based on the method developed in Holanda, Goncalves &…
The distance ratio derived from strong gravitational lensing systems, combined with complementary cosmological observations, offers a model-independent means to investigate the geometry and dynamics of the universe. In this study, we carry…
We perform a tomographic baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) analysis using the monopole, quadrupole and hexadecapole of the redshift-space galaxy power spectrum measured from the pre-reconstructed combined galaxy sample of the completed…
Double source lensing, with two sources lensed by the same foreground galaxy, involves the distance between each source and the lens and hence is a probe of the universe away from the observer. The double source distance ratio also reduces…

Even though the Hubble constant cannot be significantly determined by the low-redshift Baryon Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) data alone, it can be tightly constrained once the high-redshift BAO data are combined. Combining BAO data from 6dFGS,…
Weak lensing (WL) clustering is studied using 2D (angular) coordinates, while redshift space distortions (RSD) and baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) use 3D coordinates, which requires a model dependent conversion of angles and redshifts…
