These results are based on new VLT-KMOS high spectral resolution observations of 41 high-z (1.3 &lt;= z &lt;= 2.6) HIIG combined with published data for 45 high-z and 107 z &lt;= 0.15 HIIG, while the cosmological analysis is based on the MultiNest Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) procedure not considering systematic uncertainties. Using only HIIG to constrain the matter density parameter ({Omega}_m_), we find {Omega}_m_ = 0.244^+0.040^_-0.049_ (stat), an improvement over our best previous cosmological parameter constraints, as indicated by a 37 per cent increase of the figure of merit. The marginalized best-fitting parameter values for the plane ({Omega}_m_; w0) = (0.249^+0.11^_-0.065_ ; -1.18^+0.45^_-0.41_) (stat) show an improvement of the cosmological parameters constraints by 40 per cent. Combining the HIIG Hubble diagram, the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) probes yields {Omega}_m_ = 0.298 +/- 0.012 and w0 = -1.005 +/- 0.051, which are certainly compatible - although less constraining - than the solution based on the joint analysis of Ia supernovae (SNIa), CMB and BAO measurements. An attempt to constrain the evolution of the dark energy with time (CPL model), using a joint analysis of the HIIG, CMB, and BAO measurements, shows a degenerate 1{sigma} contour of the parameters in the (w0, wa) plane.</description><source format="bibcode">2021MNRAS.505.1441G</source><referenceURL>https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/MNRAS/505/1441</referenceURL><type>Catalog</type><contentLevel>Research</contentLevel><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/TAP">TAP VizieR generic service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource>Conesearch service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>related-to</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/ApJ/647/128">J/ApJ/647/128 : H{alpha} observations of UV-selected galaxies (Erb, 2006)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/MNRAS/442/3565">J/MNRAS/442/3565 : L-{sigma} relation for massive star formation(Chavez+, 2014)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/II/314">II/314 : UKIDSS-DR8 LAS, GCS and DXS Surveys (Lawrence+ 2012)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/II/261">II/261 : GOODS initial results (Giavalisco+, 2004)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/ApJS/203/24">J/ApJS/203/24 : Structural parameters of galaxies in CANDELS</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/ApJS/206/10">J/ApJS/206/10 : CANDELS multiwavelength catalog (Galametz+, 2013)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/ApJ/742/111">J/ApJ/742/111 : Extreme emission-line galaxies in CANDELS</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/ApJ/706/1364">J/ApJ/706/1364 : SINS survey of high-redshift galaxies</relatedResource></relationship></content><rights>https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.html</rights><capability><interface xsi:type="vr:WebBrowser"><accessURL use="full">https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/505/1441</accessURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at IUCAA: Pune, India">https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/505/1441</mirrorURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at SAAO: SAAO, South Africa">http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/505/1441</mirrorURL></interface></capability><capability><interface xsi:type="vs:ParamHTTP"><accessURL use="base">https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/505/1441</accessURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at IUCAA: Pune, India">https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/505/1441</mirrorURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at SAAO: SAAO, South Africa">http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/505/1441</mirrorURL><queryType>GET</queryType><resultType>text/xml+votable</resultType></interface></capability><capability standardID="ivo://ivoa.net/std/TAP#aux"><interface xsi:type="vs:ParamHTTP" role="std"><accessURL use="base">https://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tap</accessURL></interface></capability><capability xsi:type="cs:ConeSearch" standardID="ivo://ivoa.net/std/ConeSearch"><description>Cone search capability for table J/MNRAS/505/1441/tablea1 (KMOS observed 96 star-forming galaxies candidates)</description><interface xsi:type="vs:ParamHTTP" role="std"><accessURL use="base">https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/505/1441/tablea1?</accessURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at IUCAA: Pune, India">https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/505/1441/tablea1?</mirrorURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at SAAO: SAAO, South Africa">http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/505/1441/tablea1?</mirrorURL><queryType>GET</queryType><resultType>text/xml+votable</resultType></interface><maxSR>180.0</maxSR><maxRecords>50000</maxRecords><verbosity>true</verbosity><testQuery><ra>356.56741667</ra><dec>12.80258611</dec><sr>0.005555555555555556</sr></testQuery></capability><coverage><spatial>6/17679 17690 19682 27258 35935</spatial><footprint ivo-id="ivo://ivoa.net/std/moc">https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/MNRAS/505/1441?format=ascii</footprint><waveband>Optical</waveband><waveband>Infrared</waveband></coverage><tableset><schema><name>default</name><table><name>J/MNRAS/505/1441/tablea1</name><description>KMOS observed 96 star-forming galaxies candidates</description><column><name>recno</name><description>Record number assigned by the VizieR team.
