Recent measurements of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB), particularly when combined with other datasets, have revolutionised our knowledge of the values of the basic cosmological parameters. Here we summarize the state of play at the end of 2006, focusing on the combination of CMB measurements with the power spectrum of galaxy clustering. We compare the constraints derived from the extant CMB data circa 2005 and the final 2dFGRS galaxy power spectrum, with the results obtained when the WMAP 1-year data is replaced by the 3-year measurements (hereafter WMAP1 and WMAP3). Remarkably, the picture has changed relatively little with the arrival of WMAP3, though some aspects have been brought into much sharper focus. One notable example of this is the index of primordial scalar fluctuations, n_s. Prior to WMAP3, Sanchez et al. (2006) found that the scale invariant value of n_s = 1 was excluded at the 95% level. With WMAP3, this becomes a 3sigma result, with implications for models of inflation. We find some disagreement between the constraints on certain parameters when the 2dFGRS P(k) is replaced by the SDSS measurement. This suggests that more work is needed to understand the relation between the clustering of different types of galaxies and the linear perturbation theory prediction for the power spectrum of matter fluctuations.

In this manuscript of the habilitation `a diriger des recherches (HDR), the author presents some of his work over the last ten years. The main topic of this thesis is cosmic shear, the distortion of images of distant galaxies due to weak gravitationa
l lensing by the large-scale structure in the Universe. Cosmic shear has become a powerful probe into the nature of dark matter and the origin of the current accelerated expansion of the Universe. Over the last years, cosmic shear has evolved into a reliable and robust cosmological probe, providing measurements of the expansion history of the Universe and the growth of its structure. I review the principles of weak gravitational lensing and show how cosmic shear is interpreted in a cosmological context. Then I give an overview of weak-lensing measurements, and present observational results from the Canada-France Hawaii Lensing Survey (CFHTLenS), as well as the implications for cosmology. I conclude with an outlook on the various future surveys and missions, for which cosmic shear is one of the main science drivers, and discuss promising new weak cosmological lensing techniques for future observations.
This is a review article for The Review of Particle Physics 2020 (aka the Particle Data Book). It forms a compact review of knowledge of the cosmological parameters at the end of 2019. Topics included are Parametrizing the Universe; Extensions to the
standard model; Probes; Bringing observations together; Outlook for the future.
In light of the recent finding of the narrow clustering of the geometrically-corrected gamma-ray energies emitted by Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs), we investigate the possibility to use these sources as standard candles to probe cosmological parameters suc
h as the matter density Omega_m and the cosmological constant energy density Omega_Lambda. By simulating different samples of gamma-ray bursts, based on recent observational results, we find that Omega_m (with the prior Omega_m + Omega_Lambda = 1) can be determined with accuracy ~7% with data from 300 GRBs, provided a local calibration of the standard candles be achieved.
In cosmology, the cosmic curvature $K$ and the cosmological constant $Lambda$ are two important parameters, and the values have strong influence on the behavior of the universe. In the context of normal cosmology, under the ordinary assumptions of po
sitive mass-energy and initial negative pressure, we find the initial singularity of the universe is certainly absent and we have $K=1$. This means total spatial structure of the universe should be a 3-dimensional sphere $S^3$. For the cyclic cosmological model, we have $Lambdalesssim 10^{-24} {rm ly}^{-2}$. Obviously, such constraints would be helpful for the researches on the properties of dark matter and dark energy in cosmology.
We present the first results based on Planck measurements of the CMB temperature and lensing-potential power spectra. The Planck spectra at high multipoles are extremely well described by the standard spatially-flat six-parameter LCDM cosmology. In t
his model Planck data determine the cosmological parameters to high precision. We find a low value of the Hubble constant, H0=67.3+/-1.2 km/s/Mpc and a high value of the matter density parameter, Omega_m=0.315+/-0.017 (+/-1 sigma errors) in excellent agreement with constraints from baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) surveys. Including curvature, we find that the Universe is consistent with spatial flatness to percent-level precision using Planck CMB data alone. We present results from an analysis of extensions to the standard cosmology, using astrophysical data sets in addition to Planck and high-resolution CMB data. None of these models are favoured significantly over standard LCDM. The deviation of the scalar spectral index from unity is insensitive to the addition of tensor modes and to changes in the matter content of the Universe. We find a 95% upper limit of r<0.11 on the tensor-to-scalar ratio. There is no evidence for additional neutrino-like relativistic particles. Using BAO and CMB data, we find N_eff=3.30+/-0.27 for the effective number of relativistic degrees of freedom, and an upper limit of 0.23 eV for the summed neutrino mass. Our results are in excellent agreement with big bang nucleosynthesis and the standard value of N_eff=3.046. We find no evidence for dynamical dark energy. Despite the success of the standard LCDM model, this cosmology does not provide a good fit to the CMB power spectrum at low multipoles, as noted previously by the WMAP team. While not of decisive significance, this is an anomaly in an otherwise self-consistent analysis of the Planck temperature data.
