The age of the Universe has been increasingly constrained by different techniques, such as the observations of type Ia supernovae (SNIa) at high redshift or dating the stellar populations of globular clusters. In this paper, we present a complementary approach using the colours of the brightest elliptical galaxies in clusters over a wide redshift range ( z ≲ 1) . We put new and independent bounds on the dark energy equation of state parametrized by a constant pressure-to-density ratio w Q and by a parameter (ξ) which determines the scaling between the matter and dark energy densities. We find that accurate estimates of the metallicities of the stellar populations in moderate and high-redshift cluster galaxies can pose stringent constraints on the parameters that describe dark energy. Our results are in good agreement with the analysis of dark energy models using SNIa data as a constraint. Accurate estimates of the metallicities of stellar populations in cluster galaxies at z ≲ 2 will make this approach a powerful complement to studies of cosmological parameters using high-redshift SNIa. 相似文献

We use the Hubble Ultra Deep Field to study the galaxy luminosity–size ( M – R e ) distribution. With a careful analysis of selection effects due to both detection completeness and measurement reliability, we identify bias-free regions in the M – R e plane for a series of volume-limited samples. By comparison to a nearby survey also having well-defined selection limits, namely the Millennium Galaxy Catalogue, we present clear evidence for evolution in surface brightness since z ∼ 0.7 . Specifically, we demonstrate that the mean, rest-frame B -band 〈μ〉 e for galaxies in a sample spanning 8 mag in luminosity between M B =−22 and −14 mag increases by ∼1.0 mag arcsec−2 from z ∼ 0.1 to 0.7. We also highlight the importance of considering surface brightness-dependent measurement biases in addition to incompleteness biases. In particular, the increasing, systematic underestimation of Kron fluxes towards low surface brightnesses may cause diffuse, yet luminous, systems to be mistaken for faint, compact objects. 相似文献
