Abstract

We study Modified Chaplygin Gas (MCG) as a candidate for dark energy and predict the values of parameters of the gas for a physically viable cosmological model. The equation of state of MCG (p=BρAραp=B \rho - \frac {A}{\rho^\alpha} ) involves three parameters: BB, AA and α\alpha. The permitted values of these parameters are determined with the help of dimensionless age parameter (HotoH_{o}t_{o}) and H(z)zH(z)-z Data. Specifically we study the allowed ranges of values of B parameter in terms of α\alpha and AsA_{s} (AsA_{s} is defined in terms of the constants in the theory). We explore the constraints of the parameters in Cold Dark Matter(CDM) model and UDME(Unified Dark Matter Energy) model respectively.
