There are many different approaches to using observations to constrain or determine the global cosmological parameters that describe our universe. Methods that rely upon a determination of the coordinate distance to high-redshift sources…
A sample of 20 powerful extended radio galaxies with redshifts between zero and two were used to determine constraints on global cosmological parameters. Data for six radio sources were obtained from the VLA archive, analyzed, and combined…

Fourteen classical double radio galaxies with redshifts between zero and two were used to determine the cosmological parameters $\Omega_m$, $\Omega_{\Lambda}$, and $\Omega_k$, where these are the normalized values of the mean mass density,…
We are conducting a redshift survey of 177 flat-spectrum radio sources in 3 samples covering the 5GHz flux ranges 50-100, 100-200 and 200-250 mJy. So far, we have measured 124 redshifts with completenesses of 80%, 68% and 58% for the…
Some years ago (Jackson and Dodgson 1997) analysis of the angular-size/redshift relationship for ultra-compact radio sources indicted that for spatially flat universes the best choice of cosmological parameters was Omega_m=0.2 and…
We calculate the expected number of strongly lensed radio sources in a sample of 6500 sources observed with the Very Large Array as part of the Cosmic Lens All Sky Survey (CLASS) during the first two sessions of its observations. A…
Using a new radio sample, 6C* designed to find radio galaxies at z > 4 along with the complete 3CRR and 6CE sample we extend the radio galaxy K-z relation to z~4.5. The 6C* K-z data significantly improve delineation of the K-z relation for…
Radio galaxies provide a means to determine the coordinate distance,the luminosity distance, the dimensionless luminosity distance, or the angular size distance to sources with redshifts as large as two. Dimensionless coodinate distances…
FRIIb radio galaxies provide a tool to determine the coordinate distance to sources out to redshifts of two. The coordinate distance depends on the present values of global cosmological parameters, quintessence, and the equation of state of…
We perform a cosmographic analysis using several cosmological observables such as the luminosity distance moduli, the volume distance, the angular diameter distance and the Hubble parameter. These quantities are determined using different…
Fanaroff-Riley type IIb (FR IIb) radio galaxies provide a modified standard yardstick that allows constraints to be placed on global cosmological parameters. A sample of 20 FR IIb radio galaxies with redshifts between 0 and 2 are compared…
Powerful extended radio galaxies like Cygnus A can be used for cosmological tests. The characteristic, time-independent length $D_*$ for several radio sources is calculated and compared to the average physical length for a sample of radio…
We investigate aspects of the cosmological evolution of FR II radio galaxies, focusing first on the abilities of models to match data for linear-sizes, radio powers, redshifts and spectral indices. Here we consider modifications to the…
We review observational tests for the homogeneity of the Universe on large scales. Redshift and peculiar velocity surveys, radio sources, the X-Ray Background, the Lyman-$\alpha$ forest and the Cosmic Microwave Background are used to set…
We present the first joint analysis of catalogs of radio galaxies and quasars to determine if their sky distribution is consistent with the standard $\Lambda$CDM model of cosmology. This model is based on the cosmological principle, which…
Observational tests for the homogeneity of the Universe on large scales are reviewed. Assuming the Cosmological Principle we then estimate cosmological parameters by joint analysis of the Cosmic Microwave Background, Supernovae Ia, peculiar…
We study the morphology of the radio emission of giant radio galaxies (GRGs), a rare type of active galaxies, in order to find new clues for the reasons of their large size. Using radio images from two sky surveys at 1.4 GHz we quantified…
In this paper, we place constraints on four alternative cosmological models under the assumption of the spatial flatness of the Universe: CPL, EDE, GCG and MPC. A new compilation of 120 compact radio quasars observed by very-long-baseline…
We investigate the correlations in galaxy shapes between optical and radio wavelengths using archival observations of the COSMOS field. Cross-correlation studies between different wavebands will become increasingly important for precision…
