KnowraLuminosity distanceLinked fromLinked fromThe 12 pages that link to Luminosity distance, each with the reason it gives.All 12Related 8Compared with 4Dark energyRelated: It converts supernova brightness into a distance for expansion-history tests.Galaxy redshift surveyRelated: It illustrates why cosmological distances inferred from observations depend on the expansion model.Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker metricRelated: Its value depends on expansion history and spatial curvature in the FLRW model.Galaxy luminosity functionRelated: Converting measured fluxes into luminosities requires estimating this distance.Hubble parameterRelated: It depends on the expansion history, not solely on the instantaneous Hubble parameter.Accelerating expansion of the universeRelated: The supernova result rests on comparing measured brightness with redshift.Brian SchmidtRelated: Comparing luminosity distances with redshifts revealed that distant supernovae were dimmer than expected.Comoving and proper distancesRelated: Astronomical observations infer it from brightness, unlike spatial proper distance.
