We apply a new non-parametric Bayesian method for reconstructing the evolution history of the equation-of-state $w$ of dark energy, based on applying a correlated prior for $w(z)$, to a collection of cosmological data. We combine the latest…

So far large and different data sets revealed the accelerated expansion rate of the Universe, which is usually explained in terms of dark energy. The nature of dark energy is not yet known, and several models have been introduced: a non…

One of the few ways to measure the properties of Dark Energy is to extend the Hubble daigram (HD) to higher redshifts with Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs). GRBs have at least five properties (their spectral lag, variability, spectral peak photon…

We examine constraints obtained from SNIa surveys on a two parameter model of dark energy in which the equation of state $w (z) = P(z) / \rho (z)$ undergoes a transition over a period significantly shorter than the Hubble time. We find that…

A new method of measuring cosmology with gamma-ray bursts(GRBs) has been proposed by Liang and Zhang recently. In this method, only observable quantities including the rest frame peak energy of the \nu F_\nu spectrum (E'_p), the isotropic…

Observational evidence for the accelerated expansion of the universe requires dark energy for its explanation if general relativity is an accurate model of gravity. However, dark energy is a mysterious quantity and we do not know much about…

Early dark energy models, for which the contribution to the dark energy density at high redshifts is not negligible, influence the growth of cosmic structures and could leave observable signatures that are different from the standard…

Several correlations among Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) quantities, both in the prompt and afterglow emissions, have been established during the last decades, thus enabling the standardization of GRBs as cosmological probes. Since GRBs are…

Nearly all proposed tests for the nature of dark energy measure some combination of four fundamental observables: the Hubble parameter H(z), the distance-redshift relation d(z), the age-redshift relation t(z), or the linear growth factor…

We place tight constraints on the redshift-averaged, effective value of the equation of state of dark energy, w, using only the absolute ages of Galactic stars and the observed position of the first peak in the angular power spectrum of the…

The concordance (LambdaCDM) model reproduces the main current cosmological observations assuming the validity of general relativity at all scales and epochs, the presence of cold dark matter, and of a cosmological constant, equivalent to a…

We investigate whether future measurements of high redshift standard candles (HzSCs) will be a powerful probe of dark energy, when compared to other types of planned dark energy measurements. Active galactic nuclei and gamma ray bursts have…

Gamma-ray bursts are the most energetic explosions in the Universe. They are detectable up to very high redshifts, therefore can be used to study the expansion rate of the Universe and to investigate the observational properties of dark…

We study the dark energy equation of state as a function of redshift in a non-parametric way, without imposing any {\it a priori} $w(z)$ (ratio of pressure over energy density) functional form. As a check of the method, we test our scheme…

The Hubble diagram (HD) of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) having properly estimated redshifts is compared with the predicted one for the Chaplygin gas (CG), a dark energy candidate. The CG cosmology and that of Friedmann and $\Lambda$-CDM models…

We compile an updated list of 38 measurements of the Hubble parameter $H(z)$ between redshifts $0.07 \leq z \leq 2.36$ and use them to place constraints on model parameters of constant and time-varying dark energy cosmological models, both…
