We define Baryon Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) observables $\hat{d}_\alpha(z, z_c)\hat{d}z(z, z_c)\hat{d}/(z, z_c)$ that do not depend on any cosmological parameter. From each of these observables we recover the BAO correlation length with its respective dependence on cosmological parameters. These BAO observables are measured as a function of redshift with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) data release DR12. From the BAO measurements alone, or together with the correlation angle of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), we constrain the curvature parameter and the dark energy density as a function of the expansion parameter in several scenarios. These observables are further constrained with external measurements of and . We find some tension between the data and a cosmology with flat space and constant dark energy density .
