Cosmology


PicturePlot from Betoule et al. 2014 showing the best current constraints on the Dark Energy equation of state, "w," versus Omega_Matter, the amount of matter in the universe. Our supernova results are in blue. The Planck results are in green, and the intersection is in gray. This version of the plot is by Alex Conley.
