Joint confidence intervals for ﹩\Omega _{M}﹩ and a static equation of state for dark energy, w. In the left panel, constraints from the gold SN Ia sample (dotted contours) are combined with a prior of ﹩\Omega _{M}=0.27\pm 0.04﹩ to yield the solid contours. In the right panel, the same SN constraints are combined with those from WMAPext and 2dFGRS to yield the solid contours.
