Extended Quintessence and its Late-time Domination
Various astronomical observations point towards the evidence for dark energy. One of the most mysterious problem is the coincidence problem: why dark energy becomes dominant only recently. We present a scenario based on extended quintessence models to explain the late-time domination of dark energy without severe fine-tuning of initial conditions and model parameters. PACS numbers: 98.80.Es; 98...
متن کاملExtended quintessence with an exponential coupling
We study a class of extended quintessence cosmologies where the scalar field playing the role of the dark energy is exponentially coupled to the Ricci scalar. We find that the dynamics induced by the effective gravitational potential in the Klein-Gordon equation dominates the motion of the field in the early universe. The resulting “R−boost” trajectory is characterized by a kinetic dark energy ...
متن کاملSub-horizon Perturbation Behavior in Extended Quintessence
In the general context of scalar-tensor theories, we consider a model in which a scalar field coupled to the Ricci scalar in the gravitational sector of the Lagrangian, is also playing the role of an “Extended Quintessence” field, dominating the energy content of the Universe at the present time. In this framework, we study the linear evolution of the perturbations in the Quintessence energy de...
متن کاملConstraints on Extended Quintessence from High - Redshift Supernovae
We obtain constraints on quintessence models from magnitude-redshift measurements of 172 type Ia Supernovae. The considered quintessence models are ordinary quintessence, with Ratra-Peebles and SUGRA potentials, and extended quintessence with a Ratra-Peebles potential. We compute confidence regions in the Ωm0 −α plane and find that for SUGRA potentials it is not possible to obtain useful constr...
متن کاملCoupled and Extended Quintessence: theoretical differences and structure formation
The case of a coupling between dark energy and matter (Coupled Quintessence) or gravity (Extended Quintessence) has recently attracted a deep interest and has been widely investigated both in the Einstein and in the Jordan frames (EF, JF), within scalar tensor theories. Focusing on the simplest models proposed so far, in this paper we study the relation existing between the two scenarios, isola...
