* Possibilities: Cosmological
constant (w
–1),
quintessence, phantom energy (which may lead to big rip), ...
* Equation of state:
Usually parametrized by a perfect-fluid-type form p = w
,
where a cosmological constant corresponds to w = –1.
* Chaplygin

cmb peaks indicate 0 < r
1,
but supernovae indicate r > 1; > s.a. inflationary

* Idea: The two could
originate from the same field(s); For example, dark matter (possibly in the
form of massive, sterile neutrinos) could condensate and act
as dust
on scales below the horizon, and be in a negative-pressure vacuum at scales
above the horizon.
