The variation of dark energy density with redshift, $\rho_X(z)$, provides a critical clue to the nature of dark energy. Since $\rho_X(z)$ depends on the dark energy equation of state $w_X(z)$ through an integral, $\rho_X(z)$ can be…
Baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) is one of the important standard rulers in cosmology. The results of the latest BAO measurements by Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey have been reported. Cosmology with the varying electron…
Weak gravitational lensing of background galaxies by intervening matter directly probes the mass distribution in the universe. This distribution, and its evolution at late times, is sensitive to both the dark energy, a negative pressure…
Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) provide a standard ruler of known physical length, making it a promising probe of the nature of dark energy. The detection of BAO requires measuring galaxy positions and redshifts. "Transversal" (angular…
In these proceedings we describe the WEAVE-QSO survey, which will observe around 400,000 high redshift quasars starting in 2018. This survey is part of a broader WEAVE survey to be conducted at the 4.2m William Herschel Telescope. We will…
Weak lensing surveys that can potentially place strong constraints on dark energy parameters can only do so if the source redshift means and error distributions are very well known. We investigate prospects for controlling errors in these…
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) is a massively multiplexed fiber-fed spectrograph that will make the next major advance in dark energy in the timeframe 2018-2022. On the Mayall telescope, DESI will obtain spectra and…
We present Fisher matrix projections for future cosmological parameter measurements, including neutrino masses, dark energy, curvature, modified gravity, the inflationary perturbation spectrum, non-Gaussianity, and dark radiation. We focus…
Large Scale Structures (LSS) in the universe can be traced using the neutral atomic hydrogen HI through its 21cm emission. Such a 3D matter distribution map can be used to test the Cosmological model and to constrain the Dark Energy…
We derive constraints on cosmological parameters and tests of dark energy models from the combination of baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) measurements with cosmic microwave background (CMB) and Type Ia supernova (SN) data. We take…
In this paper, we explore how the forthcoming generation of large-scale radio continuum surveys, with the inclusion of some degree of redshift information, can constrain cosmological parameters. By cross-matching these radio surveys with…
The total mass of neutrinos can be constrained in a number of ways using galaxy redshift surveys. Massive neutrinos modify the expansion rate of the Universe, which can be measured using baryon acoustic oscillations (BAOs) or the…
The Universe is currently undergoing accelerated expansion driven by dark energy. Dark energy's essential nature remains mysterious: one means of revealing it is by measuring the Universe's size at different redshifts. This may be done…
A key science goal of upcoming dark energy surveys is to seek time evolution of the dark energy. This problem is one of {\em model selection}, where the aim is to differentiate between cosmological models with different numbers of…
We use the newly released 182 Type Ia supernova data combined with the third-year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropic Probe data (WMAP3) and large scale structure (LSS) information including SDSS and 2dFGRS to constrain the dark energy equation…
The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey has now measured in excess of 160000 galaxy redshifts. This paper presents the power spectrum of the galaxy distribution, calculated using a direct FFT-based technique. We argue that, within the k-space region…
The characterization of dark energy is a central task of cosmology. To go beyond a cosmological constant, we need to introduce at least an equation of state and a sound speed and consider observational tests that involve perturbations. If…
The distribution of angles subtended between pairs of galaxies and the line of sight,which is uniform in real space, is distorted by their peculiar motions, and has been proposed as a probe of cosmic expansion. We test this idea using…
Future galaxy redshift surveys aim to measure cosmological quantities from the galaxy power spectrum. A prime example is the detection of baryonic acoustic oscillations (BAOs), providing a standard ruler to measure the dark energy equation…
With a wariness of Occam's razor awakened by the discovery of cosmic acceleration, we abandon the usual assumption of zero mean curvature and ask how well it can be determined by planned surveys. We also explore the impact of uncertain mean…
