TL;DR
This paper conducts a detailed cosmographic analysis using multiple cosmological observables and data sets, providing precise constraints on kinematic parameters and testing the compatibility of models like ΛCDM, with implications for future observations.
Contribution
It offers a comprehensive cosmographic approach with new constraints from diverse data and forecasts significant improvements with upcoming large-scale structure surveys.
Findings
Distance measurements alone cannot distinguish cosmological models.
Including Hubble data constrains parameters and challenges ΛCDM at 3-sigma.
Future data could improve parameter constraints by a factor of ten.
Abstract
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 data sets: Supernovae type Ia and Gamma Ray Bursts, the Baryonic Acoustic Oscillations, the cosmic microwave background power spectrum and the Hubble parameter as measured from surveys of galaxies. This data set allows to put constraints on the cosmographic expansion with unprecedented precision. We also present forecasts for the coefficients of the kinematic expansion using future but realistic data sets: constraints on the coefficients of the expansions are likely to improve by a factor ten with the upcoming large scale structure probes. Finally, we derive the set of the cosmographic parameters for several cosmological models (including CDM)…
