Abstract

We study the viable Starobinsky dark energy model in spatially non-flat FLRW backgrounds, where with and representing the characteristic curvature scale and model parameter, respectively. We modify CAMB and CosmoMC packages with the recent observational data to constrain Starobinsky gravity and the density parameter of curvature . In particular, we find the model and density parameters to be at 68% C.L. and at 95% C.L., respectively. The best fitting result shows that , indicating that the viable gravity model is consistent with CDM when is set as a free parameter. We also evaluate the values of AIC, BIC and DIC for the best fitting results of and CDM models in the non-flat universe.
