We present the cosmological parameters constraints obtained from the combination of galaxy cluster mass function measurements (Vikhlinin et al., 2009a,b) with new cosmological data obtained during last three years: updated measurements of cosmic microwave background anisotropy with Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) observatory, and at smaller angular scales with South Pole Telescope (SPT), new Hubble constant measurements, baryon acoustic oscillations and supernovae Type Ia observations. New constraints on total neutrino mass and effective number of neutrino species are obtained. In models with free number of massive neutrinos the constraints on these parameters are notably less strong, and all considered cosmological data are consistent with non-zero total neutrino mass Sigma m_ u approx 0.4 eV and larger than standard effective number of neutrino species, N_eff approx 4. These constraints are compared to the results of neutrino oscillations searches at short baselines. The updated dark energy equation of state parameters constraints are presented. We show that taking in account systematic uncertainties, current cluster mass function data provide similarly powerful constraints on dark energy equation of state, as compared to the constraints from supernovae Type Ia observations.

We use HII starburst galaxy apparent magnitude measurements to constrain cosmological parameters in six cosmological models. A joint analysis of HII galaxy, quasar angular size, baryon acoustic oscillations peak length scale, and Hubble parameter mea surements result in relatively model-independent and restrictive estimates of the current values of the non-relativistic matter density parameter $Omega_{rm m_0}$ and the Hubble constant $H_0$. These estimates favor a 2.0$sigma$ to 3.4$sigma$ (depending on cosmological model) lower $H_0$ than what is measured from the local expansion rate. The combined data are consistent with dark energy being a cosmological constant and with flat spatial hypersurfaces, but do not strongly rule out mild dark energy dynamics or slightly non-flat spatial geometries.
We compare the constraints from two (2019 and 2021) compilations of HII starburst galaxy (HIIG) data and test the model-independence of quasar angular size (QSO) data using six spatially flat and non-flat cosmological models. We find that the new 202 1 compilation of HIIG data generally provides tighter constraints and prefers lower values of cosmological parameters than those from the 2019 HIIG data. QSO data by themselves give relatively model-independent constraints on the characteristic linear size, $l_{rm m}$, of the QSOs within the sample. We also use Hubble parameter ($H(z)$), baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO), Pantheon Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) apparent magnitude (SN-Pantheon), and DES-3yr binned SN Ia apparent magnitude (SN-DES) measurements to perform joint analyses with HIIG and QSO angular size data, since their constraints are not mutually inconsistent within the six cosmological models we study. A joint analysis of $H(z)$, BAO, SN-Pantheon, SN-DES, QSO, and the newest compilation of HIIG data provides almost model-independent summary estimates of the Hubble constant, $H_0=69.7pm1.2 rm{km s^{-1} Mpc^{-1}}$, the non-relativistic matter density parameter, $Omega_{rm m_0}=0.293pm0.021$, and $l_{rm m}=10.93pm0.25$ pc.
We use measurements of the peak photon energy and bolometric fluence of 119 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) extending over the redshift range of $0.3399 leq z leq 8.2$ to simultaneously determine cosmological and Amati relation parameters in six different co smological models. The resulting Amati relation parameters are almost identical in all six cosmological models, thus validating the use of the Amati relation in standardizing these GRBs. The GRB data cosmological parameter constraints are consistent with, but significantly less restrictive than, those obtained from a joint analysis of baryon acoustic oscillation and Hubble parameter measurements.
In recent years, the availability of large, complete cluster samples has enabled numerous cosmological parameter inference analyses using cluster number counts. These have provided constraints on the cosmic matter density $Omega_m$ and the amplitude of matter density fluctuations $sigma_8$ alternative to those obtained from other standard probes. However, systematics uncertainties, such as the mass calibration bias and selection effects, may still significantly affect these data analyses. Hence, it is timely to explore other proxies of galaxy cluster cosmology that can provide cosmological constraints complementary to those obtained from cluster number counts. Here, we use measurements of the cluster sparsity from weak lensing mass estimates of the LC$^2$-{it single} and HSC-XXL cluster catalogs to infer constraints on a flat $Lambda$CDM model. The cluster sparsity has the advantage of being insensitive to selection and mass calibration bias. On the other hand, it primarily constrains a degenerate combination of $Omega_m$ and $sigma_8$ (along approximately constant curves of $S_8=sigma_8sqrt{Omega_m/0.3}$), and to less extent the reduced Hubble parameter $h$. Hence, in order to break the internal parameter degeneracies we perform a combined likelihood analysis of cluster sparsities with cluster gas mass fraction measurements and BAO data. We find marginal constraints that are competitive with those from other standard cosmic probes: $Omega_m=0.316pm 0.013$, $sigma_8=0.757pm 0.067$ (corresponding to $S_8=0.776pm 0.064$) and $h=0.696pm 0.017$ at $1sigma$. Moreover, assuming a conservative Gaussian prior on the mass bias of gas mass fraction data, we find a lower limit on the gas depletion factor $Y_{b,500c}gtrsim 0.89$.

For a robust interpretation of upcoming observations from PLANCK and LHC experiments it is imperative to understand how the inflationary dynamics of a non-minimally coupled Higgs scalar field with gravity may affect the determination of the inflation ary observables. We make a full proper analysis of the WMAP7+SN+BAO dataset in the context of the non-minimally coupled Higgs inflation field with gravity. For the central value of the top quark pole mass m_T=171.3 GeV, the fit of the inflation model with non-minimally coupled Higgs scalar field leads to the Higgs boson mass between 143.7 and 167 GeV (95% CL). We show that the inflation driven by a non-minimally coupled scalar field to the Einstein gravity leads to significant constraints on the scalar spectral index and tensor-to-scalar ratio when compared with the similar constraints tensor to from the standard inflation with minimally coupled scalar field. We also show that an accurate reconstruction of the Higgs potential in terms of inflationary observables requires an improved accuracy of other parameters of the Standard Model of particle physics as the top quark mass and the effective QCD coupling constant.
