Crossing the phantom divide without phantom matter
A class of braneworld models can lead to phantom-like acceleration of the late universe, but without the need for any phantom matter. In the simplest models, the universe contains only cold dark matter and a cosmological constant. We generalize these models by introducing a quintessence field. The n...

paper:paper_14757516_v_n9_p_Chimento2025-07-30T18:53:42Z Crossing the phantom divide without phantom matter Cosmological applications of theories with extra dimensions Dark energy theory A class of braneworld models can lead to phantom-like acceleration of the late universe, but without the need for any phantom matter. In the simplest models, the universe contains only cold dark matter and a cosmological constant. We generalize these models by introducing a quintessence field. The new feature in our models is that quintessence leads to a crossing of the phantom divide, w = -1. This is a purely gravitational effect, and there is no phantom instability. Furthermore, the Hubble parameter is always decreasing, and there is no big rip singularity in the future. © IOP Publishing Ltd. 2006 https://bibliotecadigital.exactas.uba.ar/collection/paper/document/paper_14757516_v_n9_p_Chimento http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12110/paper_14757516_v_n9_p_Chimento |
