The kinematic approach to cosmological tests provides a direct evidence to the present accelerating stage of the universe which does not depend on the validity of general relativity, as well as on the matter-energy content of the Universe.…

In this paper, we explore power law solution of FLRW universe model that is associated with a variable cosmological term $\Lambda(t)$ as a linear function of $\frac{\ddot{a}}{a}, (\frac{\dot{a}}{a})^2$ and $\rho$. The model parameters were…

In this paper, we use a set of observational $H(z)$ data (OHD) to constrain the $\Lambda$CDM cosmology. This data set can be derived from the differential ages of the passively evolving galaxies. Meanwhile, the $\mathcal {A}$-parameter,…

We constrain AvERA cosmologies in comparison with the flat $\Lambda$CDM model using cosmic chronometer (CC) data and the Pantheon+ sample of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). The analysis includes fits to both CC and SN datasets using the…

The analysis of Type Ia supernova data over the past decade has been a notable success story in cosmology. These standard candles offer us an unparalleled opportunity of studying the cosmological expansion out to a redshift of ~1.5. The…

Context: The cosmological concordance model ($\Lambda$CDM) matches the cosmological observations exceedingly well. This model has become the standard cosmological model with the evidence for an accelerated expansion provided by the type Ia…

A paper by Harmut Traunm\"uller [1] showed from statistical studies of observational data that the most adequate equation to represent observations on magnitude and redshift from 892 type 1a supernovae is $\mu = 5\,log[(1+z)\,ln(1+z)] +…

Under the assumption of a flat Lambda-CDM cosmology, recent data from the Planck satellite point toward a Hubble constant that is in tension with that measured by gravitational lens time delays and by the local distance ladder. Prosaically,…

We present a calibration-independent test of the accelerated expansion of the universe using supernova type Ia data. The test is also model-independent in the sense that no assumptions about the content of the universe or about the…
