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,…
Physical sizes of extended radio galaxies can be employed as a cosmological "standard ruler", using a previously developed method. Eleven new radio galaxies are added to our previous sample of nineteen sources, forming a sample of thirty…
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…
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…
We derive constraints on cosmological parameters and the properties of the lensing galaxies from gravitational lens statistics based on the final Cosmic Lens All Sky Survey (CLASS) data. For a flat universe with a classical cosmological…
The radio properties of powerful extended radio sources may be used to estimate the ambient gas density in the vicinity of radio lobes. A sample of 27 radio lobes from 14 radio galaxies and of 14 radio lobes from 8 radio loud quasars was…
We derive constraints on cosmological parameters using the power spectrum of galaxy clustering measured from the final two-degree field galaxy redshift survey (2dFGRS) and a compilation of measurements of the temperature power spectrum and…
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…
We identified 15,658 NVSS radio sources among the 55,288 2MASX galaxies brighter than $k_\mathrm{20fe} = 12.25$ at $\lambda = 2.16\,\mu\mathrm{m}$ and covering the $\Omega =7.016$ sr of sky defined by J2000 $\delta > -40^\circ$ and $\vert b…
The properties of a sample of 31 very powerful classical double radio galaxies with redshifts between zero and 1.8 are studied. The source velocities, beam powers, ambient gas densities, total lifetimes, and total outflow energies are…
We present a maximum likelihood analysis of cosmological parameters from measurements of the aperture mass up to 35 arcmin, using simulated and real cosmic shear data. A four-dimensional parameter space is explored which examines the mean…
We have re-examined an ancient VLBI survey of ultra-comact radio sources at 2.29 GHz, which gave fringe amplitudes for 917 such objects with total flux density >0.5 Jy approximately. A number of cosmological investigations based upon this…
The ages of two old galaxies (53W091, 53W069) at high redshifts are used to constrain the value of the cosmological constant in a flat universe ($\Lambda$CDM) and the density parameter $\Omega_M$ in Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) models…
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…
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…
Strong gravitational lensing along with the distance sum rule method can constrain both cosmological parameters as well as density profiles of galaxies without assuming any fiducial cosmological model. To constrain galaxy parameters and…
Cosmological applications of the "redshift - angular size" test require knowledge of the linear size of the "standard rod" used. In this paper, we study the properties of a large sample of 140 milliarcsecond compact radio sources with flux…
Three different methods of measuring cosmology with gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been proposed since a relation between the $\gamma$-ray energy $E_{\gamma} $ of a GRB jet and the peak energy $E_p$ of the $\nu F_{\nu}$ spectrum in the burst…
Understanding diffuse Galactic radio emission is interesting both in its own right and for minimizing foreground contamination of cosmological measurements. Cosmic Microwave Background experiments have focused on frequencies > 10 GHz,…
