Abstract
After reviewing the main characteristics of the spacetime of accelerating universes driven by a quintessence scalar field with constant equation of state , we investigate in this paper the classical stability of such spaces to cosmological perturbations, particularizing in the case of a closed geometry and equation of state . We conclude that this space is classically stable and conjecture that accelerating universes driven by quintessential fields have "no-hair".
