Abstract

We study how future Type Ia supernovae (SNIa) standard candles detected by the Vera C. Rubin Observatory (LSST) can constrain some cosmological models. We use a realistic 3-yr SNIa simulated data set generated by the LSST Dark Energy Science Collaboration time domain pipeline, which includes a mix of spectroscopic and photometrically identified candidates. We combine these data with cosmic microwave background (CMB) and baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) measurements to estimate the dark energy model parameters for two models – the baseline Lambda cold dark matter (ΛCDM) and Chevallier–Polarski–Linder (CPL) dark energy parametrization. We compare them with the current constraints obtained from the joint analysis of the latest real data from the Pantheon SNIa compilation, CMB from Planck 2018 and BAO. Our analysis finds tighter constraints on the model parameters along with a significant reduction of correlation between H 0 and σ8,0. We find that LSST is expected to significantly improve upon the existing SNIa data in the critical analysis of cosmological models. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
