Resumo

We compile 41 H(z) data from literature and use them to constrain OΛCDM and flat ΛCDM parameters. We show that the available H(z) suffers from uncertainties overestimation and propose a Bayesian method to reduce them. As a result of this method, using H(z) only, we find, in the context of OΛCDM, H0 = 69.5 ± 2.5 kms-1 Mpc-1, Ωm = 0.242 ± 0.036, and ΩΛ = 0.68 ± 0.14. In the context of flatΛCDMmodel,we have foundH0 =70.4±1.2 kms-1 Mpc-1 and Ωm = 0.256 ± 0.014. This corresponds to an uncertainty reduction of up to ≈30 per cent when compared to the uncorrected analysis in both cases.
