Extended tachyon field, Chaplygin gas, and solvable k-essence cosmologies

We investigate a flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker spacetime filled with k essence and find the set of functions F that generate three different families of extended tachyon fields and Chaplygin gases. They lead to accelerated and superaccelerated expanding scenarios. For any function F, we find the f...
