    Convert Modulus
AI Thread Summary
Converting distance modulus to Hubble parameter H(z) values is possible, but requires redshift data for accurate plotting. Distance modulus can be numerically converted to distance, which is a necessary step. The discussion emphasizes the importance of having redshift information to create a Hubble curve. Participants note that redshifts represent fractions of the original frequency, which may complicate the conversion process. Overall, obtaining H(z) data from distance modulus requires careful consideration of redshift values.

TL;DR Summary
I have a set of distance modulus and I would like to know if this is possible to convert these values into a Hubble vs redshift H(z) data ( with the standard deviation)
Hello,

Everything is in th summary :

I have a set of distance modulus and I would like to know if this is possible to convert numerically these values into a Hubble vs redshift H(z) data ( with the standard deviation).

Any relation between distance modulus and H(z) are welcome.

Regards

It's easy to convert distance modulus to distance. See this Wikipedia page for example. But do you also have redshift for these objects? How can you plot a Hubble curve without redshift data?
 
@phyzguy

Of course, I forgot to mention that data are not in H(z) space but distance_modulus(z)

that's why I would like to handle them to get H(z) data

Thanks
 
Redshifts are not in a fixed number of Hz. They are fractions of the original frequency,
 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recombination_(cosmology) Was a matter density right after the decoupling low enough to consider the vacuum as the actual vacuum, and not the medium through which the light propagates with the speed lower than ##({\epsilon_0\mu_0})^{-1/2}##? I'm asking this in context of the calculation of the observable universe radius, where the time integral of the inverse of the scale factor is multiplied by the constant speed of light ##c##.
The formal paper is here. The Rutgers University news has published a story about an image being closely examined at their New Brunswick campus. Here is an excerpt: Computer modeling of the gravitational lens by Keeton and Eid showed that the four visible foreground galaxies causing the gravitational bending couldn’t explain the details of the five-image pattern. Only with the addition of a large, invisible mass, in this case, a dark matter halo, could the model match the observations...
Hi, I’m pretty new to cosmology and I’m trying to get my head around the Big Bang and the potential infinite extent of the universe as a whole. There’s lots of misleading info out there but this forum and a few others have helped me and I just wanted to check I have the right idea. The Big Bang was the creation of space and time. At this instant t=0 space was infinite in size but the scale factor was zero. I’m picturing it (hopefully correctly) like an excel spreadsheet with infinite...
