Formulae for Growth Factors In Expanding Universes Containing Matter and a Cosmological Constant

Abstract

Formulae are presented for the linear growth factor D/a and its logarithmic derivative dlnD/dlna in expanding Friedmann-Robertson-Walker Universes with arbitrary matter and vacuum densities. The formulae permit rapid and stable numerical evaluation. A fortran program is available at http://casa.colorado.edu/~ajsh/growl/ .
