Gravity assisted dark energy dominance and cosmic acceleration

Year: 2004

Type: article

Abstract: It is proposed that dark energy may become dominant over standard matter due to universe expansion (curvature decrease). Two models: non-linear gravity–matter system and modified gravity may provide an effective phantom or effective quintessence dark energy which complies with the conjecture. The effective quintessence naturally describes current cosmic speed-up.
