We consider two different methods of parameterizing the dark energy equation of state in order to assess possible ``figures of merit'' for evaluating dark energy experiments. The two models are $w(a) = w_0 + (1-a)w_a$ and $w(a) = w_p + (a_p…

Using the Reduced Relativistic Gas (RRG) model, we analytically determine the matter power spectrum for Warm Dark Matter (WDM) on small scales, $k>1\ h\text{/Mpc}$. The RRG is a simplified model for the ideal relativistic gas, but very…
We provide software with a graphical user interface to calculate the phenomenology of a wide class of dark energy models featuring multiple scalar fields. The user chooses a subclass of models and, if desired, initial conditions, or else a…

We consider a generic description of interacting dynamical Dark Energy, characterized by an equation of state with a time dependent coefficient $w(t)$, and which may interact with both radiation and matter. Without referring to any…
We analyse dark energy models where self-interacting three-forms or phantom fields drive the accelerated expansion of the Universe. The dynamics of such models is often studied by rewriting the cosmological field equations in the form of a…
The statefinder parameters ($r,s$) in two dark energy models are studied. In the first, we discuss in four-dimensional General Relativity a two fluid model, in which dark energy and dark matter are allowed to interact with each other. In…
A model of holographic dark energy with an interaction with matter fields has been investigated. Choosing the future event horizon as an IR cutoff, we have shown that the ratio of energy densities can vary with time. With the interaction…
