A class of dynamical dark energy models, dubbed Spinor Quintom, can be constructed by a spinor field $\psi$ with a nontraditional potential. We find that, if choosing suitable potential, this model is able to allow the equation-of-state to…
A phenomenological model of dark energy that tracks the baryonic and cold dark matter at early times but resembles a cosmological constant at late times is explored. In the transition between these two regimes, the dark energy density drops…
