In physically realistic scalar-field based dynamical dark energy models (including, e.g., quintessence) one naturally expects the scalar field to couple to the rest of the model's degrees of freedom. In particular, a coupling to the…
Cosmic voids are large underdense regions that, together with galaxy clusters, filaments and walls, build up the large-scale structure of the Universe. The void size function provides a powerful probe to test the cosmological framework.…
