Constraints on the curvature of the Universe and dynamical dark energy from the Full-shape and BAO data

Understand

We present limits on the parameters of the o$\Lambda$CDM, $w_0$CDM, and $w_0 w_a$CDM models obtained from the joint analysis of the full-shape, baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO), big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) and supernovae data.

• Our limits are fully independent of the data on the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies, but rival the CMB constraints in terms of parameter error bars.
• We find the spatial curvature consistent with a flat universe $\Omega_k=-0.043_{-0.036}^{+0.036}$ ($68\%$ C.L.); the dark-energy equation of state parameter $w_0$ is measured to be $w_0=-1.031_{-0.048}^{+0.052}$ ($68\%$ C.L.), consistent with a cosmological constant.
• This conclusion also holds for the time-varying dark energy equation of state, for which we find $w_0=-0.98_{-0.11}^{+0.099}$ and $w_a=-0.33_{-0.48}^{+0.63}$ (both at $68\%$ C.L.).
