Abstract
We use updated type Ia , baryon acoustic oscillation, and Hubble parameter (now also accounting for correlations) data, as well as new reverberation-measured C iv quasar data, and quasar angular size, H ii starburst galaxy, reverberation-measured Mg ii quasar, and Amati-correlated gamma-ray burst data to constrain cosmological parameters. We show that these datasets result in mutually consistent constraints and jointly use them to constrain cosmological parameters in six different spatially flat and nonflat cosmological models. Our analysis provides summary model-independent determinations of two key cosmological parameters: the Hubble constant, , and the current nonrelativistic matter density parameter, . Our summary error bars are 2.4 and 2.3 times those obtained using the flat cosmological constant cold dark matter () model and Planck cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy data. Our value is very consistent with that from the local expansion rate based on the tip of the red giant branch and type Ia supernova (SN Ia) data, is lower than that from the local expansion rate based on Cepheid and SN Ia data, and is higher than that in the flat model based on Planck CMB data. Our data compilation shows at most mild evidence for nonflat spatial hypersurfaces, but more significant evidence for dark energy dynamics, or larger in the spatially flat dynamical dark energy models we study.
