The model-independent method of using type Ia supernovae proposed and developed by Daly and Djorgovski (2003, 2004) has been applied to the Riess et al. (2007) supernovae sample. Assuming only a Robertson-Walker metric, we find that the…

We show that detailed exploration of the $1<z<2$ redshift region can provide for definitive testing not only of the standard inflationary cosmological paradigm with its fine-tuned cosmological constant and its mysteriously late ($z<1$)…
