Caption: Fig. 8.

Joint confidence intervals for (﹩\Omega _{M}﹩, ﹩\Omega _{\Lambda }﹩) from SNe Ia. The solid contours are results from the gold sample of 157 SNe Ia presented here. The dotted contours are the results from Riess et al. (1998) illustrating the earlier evidence for ﹩\Omega _{\Lambda }> 0﹩. Regions representing specific cosmological scenarios are illustrated. Contours are closed by their intersection with the line ﹩\Omega _{M}=0﹩.
