The flatness of the Universe is robust
Matts Roos, S. M. Harun-or-Rashid (University of Helsinki)
TL;DR
This paper combines data from multiple balloon experiments to reinforce the conclusion that the Universe is flat, with a measured density parameter close to unity.
Contribution
It provides a robust confirmation of the Universe's flatness by integrating results from BOOMERANG, MAXIMA-1, and previous constraints.
Findings
Universe's density parameter $oxed{ ext{Omega}_0 ext{= 0.97 ± 0.05}}$
Flatness of the Universe is strongly supported by combined data
Results are consistent with a flat cosmological model
Abstract
We combine the two balloon experiments BOOMERANG and MAXIMA-1 with our previous fit which used 9 constraints and concluded that the Universe is flat. The result is that the flatness is robust, .
