Constraining deceleration, jerk and transition redshift using cosmic chronometers, Type Ia supernovae and ISW effect

Abstract: In this study we present constraints on the deceleration (q) and jerk (j) parameters using the late time integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect, type Ia supernovae, and H(z) data . We first directly measure the deceleration and jerk parameters using the cosmic chronometers data with the Taylor series expression of H(z).However, due to the unusual variations in the deceleration parameter with slight changes in other parameters like snap (s) and lerk (l), we found that direct measurements using the series expression of the H(z) is not a suitable method for non-Lambda-CDM models and so we will need to derive the deceleration parameter after constraining density parameters and dark energy equation of state parameters. Then we present derived values of the deceleration parameter from Lambda CDM, WCDM and CPL models. We also discuss the transition redshift (zt) in relation with the deceleration parameter.
