Schuecker, Peter, Caldwell, Robert R., Böhringer, Hans, Collins, Chris A., Guzzo, Luigi, Weinberg, Nevin N.
New observational constraints on the cosmic matter density $\Omega_m$ and an effectively redshift-independent equation of state parameter $w_x$ of the dark energy are obtained while simultaneously...
Schuecker, Peter, Böhringer, Hans, Collins, Chris A., Guzzo, Luigi
For the first time the large-scale clustering and the mean abundance of galaxy clusters are analysed simultaneously to get precise constraints on the normalized cosmic matter density $\Omega_m$ and...
