We investigate the cosmological perturbation dynamics for a universe consisting of pressureless baryonic matter and a viscous fluid, the latter representing a unified model of the dark sector. In the homogeneous and isotropic background the…
We will extend the study of the new generalized Chaplygin gas (NGCG) based on [JCAP 0601(2006)003]. Concretely, we will not only discuss the change rates of the energy densities and the energy transfer of this model, but also perform the…
We derive the constraints set by several experiments on the quartessence Chaplygin model (QCM). In this scenario, a single fluid component drives the Universe from a nonrelativistic matter-dominated phase to an accelerated expansion phase…
We study the impact of a generalized Chaplygin gas as a candidate for dark energy on CMB anisotropies. The generalized Chaplygin gas is a fluid component with an exotic equation of state, $p = - A/\rho^\alpha$ (a polytropic gas with…
In this work, we investigate the cosmological dynamics of a spatially flat Friedmann--Lema\^itre--Robertson--Walker Universe in the framework of generalized \( \mathcal{F}(\mathcal{R},\Sigma,\mathcal{T}) \) gravity by incorporating…

Despite our present-day inability to predict the topology of the universe one may expect that we should be able to detect it in the near future, given the increasing accuracy in the astro-cosmological observations. Motivated by this, we…
The fact that Einstein's equations connect the space-time geometry to the total matter content of the cosmic substratum, but not to individual contributions of the matter species, can be translated into a degeneracy in the cosmological dark…
We study the non-linear spherical "top hat" collapse for Chaplygin and viscous unified cosmologies. The term unified refers to models where dark energy and dark matter are replaced by one single component. For the generalized Chaplygin gas…
Recent observations from type Ia Supernovae and from cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies have revealed that most of the matter of the Universe interacts in a repulsive manner, composing the so-called dark energy constituent of…
We study the general properties of a spherically symmetric body described through the generalized Chaplygin equation of state. We conclude that such object, dubbed generalized Chaplygin dark star, should exist within the context of the…
Motivated by recent developments in particle physics and cosmology, there has been growing interest in an unified description of dark matter and dark energy scenarios. In this paper we explore observational constraints from age estimates of…
The Modified Chaplygin Gas (MCG) model belongs to the class of a unified models of dark energy (DE) and dark matter (DM). It is characterized by an equation of state (EoS) $p_c = B\rho - A/\rho^{\alpha}$, where the case $B=0$ corresponds to…
The implications of considering interaction between Chaplygin gas and a barotropic fluid with constant equation of state have been explored. The unique feature of this work is that assuming an interaction $Q \propto H\rho_d$, analytic…
In a previous paper it was shown that any dark sector model can be mapped into a non-adiabatic fluid formed by two interacting components, one with zero pressure and the other with equation-of-state parameter $\omega = -1$. It was also…
The hypothesis that dark matter and dark energy are unified through the Chaplygin gas is reexamined. Using a generalization of the spherical model which incorporates effects of the acoustic horizon we show that an initially perturbative…
Unified dark matter models are appealing in that they describe the dark sector in terms of a single component. They however face problems when attempting to account for structure formation: in the linear regime, density fluctuations can…
