The causal interpretation of quantum mechanics is applied to a homogeneous and isotropic quantum universe, whose matter content is composed by non interacting dust and radiation. For wave functions which are eigenstates of the total dust…
There are now evidences that the cosmological constant $\Lambda$ has a non-zero positive value. Alternative scenarios to a pure cosmological constant model are provided by quintessence, an effective negative pressure fluid permeating the…

In this paper, an attempt is made to construct a Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker model in $f(R,T)$ gravity with a perfect fluid that yields acceleration at late times. We take $f(R,T)$ as $R$ + $8\pi \mu T$. As in the $\Lambda$CDM…
