Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are energetic events that can be used to explore the high-redshift universe. We find correlations between plateau luminosity, end time of plateau, and isotropic energy release in GRB samples. These correlations can be used to constrain cosmological parameters and serve as standard candles. Using different combinations of optical and X-ray samples, we obtain different constraints for flat and non-flat Lambda CDM models.
As one of the most energetic and brightest events, gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) can be treated as a promising probe of the high-redshift universe. Similar to type Ia supernovae, GRBs with the same physical origin could be treated as standard candles. We select GRB samples with the same physical origin, which are divided into two groups. The first group consists of 31 GRBs with a plateau phase feature of a constant luminosity followed by a decay index of about -2 in the X-ray afterglow light curves, and the second group has 50 GRBs with a shallow decay phase in the optical light curves. For the selected GRB samples, we confirm that there is a tight correlation between the plateau luminosity L-0, the end time of plateau tb, and the isotropic energy release E-gamma,E-iso. We also find that the L-0-t(b) - E-gamma,E-iso correlation is insensitive to the cosmological parameters and that no valid limitations on the cosmological parameters can be obtained using this correlation. We explore a new three-parameter correlation L-0, t(b), and the spectral peak energy in the rest-frame Ep, i (L-0-t(b)-E-p,E-i), and find that this correlation can be used as a standard candle to constrain the cosmological parameters. By employing the optical sample only, we find the constraints of Omega(m) = 0.697(-0.278)(+0.402) (1 sigma) for a flat Lambda CDM model. For the non-flat Lambda CDM model, the best-fitting results are Omega(m)= 0.713(- 0.278)(+0.346), Omega(Lambda)= 0.981(-0.580)(+0.379) (1 sigma). For the combination of the X-ray and optical samples, we find Omega(m) = 0.313(-0.125)(+0.179) (1 sigma) for a flat.CDM model, and Omega(m) = 0.344(-0.112)(+0.176), Omega(Lambda)= 0.770(-0.416)(+0.366) (1 sigma) for a non-flat Lambda CDM model.
