Description
I will present our state of knowledge on dark energy
from baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) and cosmic microwave
background (CMB) experiments. The BOSS experiment reaches
near the cosmic variance limit of the BAO technique at
low redshift, in the epoch of acceleration. Future experiments
will focus on higher redshifts where greater precision is
possible for dark energy constraints and for measuring the
imprints of non-gaussianity from early-universe inflation.
