In this work, we explore the phenomenology of generalized dark matter (GDM) which interacts with photons ($\gamma$). We assume that DM establishes elastic scattering with $\gamma$ when it has already become nonrelativistic, otherwise the…

This article revisits Granda-Oliveros holographic dark energy (GOHDE) model, explores the features of the parameter space and shows that its ability to explain the late-time acceleration is only due to the integration constant that appears…
We adopt a standard FRW cosmology with a unified scenario, where the usual dark matter and dark energy sectors are replaced by a single dissipative unified dark fluid (DUDF). The equation of state of such fluid can asymptote between two…
We consider unified dark sector models in which the fluid can collapse and cluster into halos, allowing for hierarchical structure formation to proceed as in standard cosmology. We show that both background evolution and linear…
The main aim of this paper is to provide cosmological constraints on the Multi Scalar Field Dark Matter model (MSFDM), in which we assume the dark matter is made up of different ultra-light scalar fields. As a first approximation, we…
We study cosmological effects of homogeneous tachyon field as dark energy. We concentrate on two different scalar field potentials, the inverse square potential and the exponential potential. These models have a unique feature that the…
We explore the phenomenological consequences of general late-time modifications of gravity in the quasi-static approximation, in the case where cold dark matter is non-minimally coupled to the gravitational sector. Assuming spectroscopic…

In this paper, we present a unified scheme based on the fluid description of the dark sector of the universe. The scheme captures models with interaction between dark energy and dark matter, being the core of generalization the time-varying…
$\phi$CDM models provide an alternative to the standard $\Lambda$CDM paradigm, while being physically better motivated. These models lead to a time-dependent speed of sound for dark energy that is difficult to replicate by $w$CDM…
We model the cosmic medium as the mixture of a generalized Chaplygin gas and a pressureless matter component. Within a neo-Newtonian approach (in which, different from standard Newtonian cosmology, the pressure enters the homogeneous and…
This study sets new constraints on Cold+Warm Dark Matter (CWDM) models by leveraging the small-scale suppression of structure formation imprinted in the Lyman-$\alpha$ forest. Using the Sherwood-Relics suite, we extract high-fidelity flux…
We consider the generalized Chaplygin gas (GCG) proposal for unification of dark energy and dark matter and show that it admits an unique decomposition into dark energy and dark matter components once phantom-like dark energy is excluded.…
The $\Lambda CDM$ expansion could be mimicked by a dark energy coupled to matter. Then, the equation of state $\bar w$ and coupling $\bar Q$ of this coupled dark energy could not be constrained by observations of the Hubble function alone.…
We investigate the case of a homogeneous tachyon field coupled to gravity in a spatially flat Friedman-Robertson-Walker spacetime. Assuming the field evolution to be exponentially decaying with time we solve the field equations and show…

The expansion rate of the Universe changes with time, initially slowing (decelerating) when the universe was matter dominated, because of the mutual gravitational attraction of all the matter in it, and more recently speeding up…
