Over the last decade, astronomical observations show that the acceleration of the expansion of the universe is greater than expected from our understanding of conventional general relativity, the mass density of the visible universe, the size of the visible universe and other astronomical measurements. The additional expansion has been attributed to a variety of phenomenon that have been given the general name of dark energy. Dark energy in the universe seems to comprise a majority of the energy in the visible universe amounting to about three times the total mass energy. But locally the dark energy density is very small. However it is not zero. In this paper I describe the work of others and myself on the question of whether dark energy density can be directly detected. This is a work-in-progress and I have no answer at present.

We explore the possibility that the expansion of the universe can be driven by a condensate of spinors which are free of interactions in a 5D relativistic vacuum defined in an extended de Sitter spacetime which is Riemann flat. The extra coordinate is considered as noncompact. After making a static foliation on the extra coordinate, we obtain an effective 4D (inflationary) de Sitter expansion which describes an inflationary universe. We found that the condensate of spinors studied here could be an interesting candidate to explain the presence of dark energy in the early universe. The dark energy density which we are talking about is poured into smaller subhorizon scales with the evolution of the inflationary expansion.

In the course of study of the evolution of the universe, it is seen that perhaps the extra energy generated and particles created due to the accelerated expansion of the universe might be absorbed by the dark energy and dark matter which are already existing in this universe. It is found that the energy density of dark energy can be expressed as a function of the energy density of the remaining matter portion of the universe which shows that the different components of the universe are correlated. According to the forms of the different types of interaction occurring between dark energy and the other different contents of the universe it may be possible to utilize the dark energy in different ways as it may take different forms of energy. As an interesting phenomenon, it is also observed that the concept of negative time may exist in this universe, and it may revolutionize some of the original concepts of nature and the physical world.

This research explores the Tsallis holographic quintessence, k-essence, and tachyon model of dark energy in the modified f(R, T) gravity framework with Granda-Oliveros cutoff. We have analyzed the energy density through ρΛ = (αH<sup>2</sup> + βH)<sup>-δ+2</sup>. We study the correspondence between the quintessence, k-essence, and tachyon energy density with the Tsallis holographic dark energy density in a flat FRW Universe. The reconstruction is performed for the different values of Tsallis parameter δ in the region of ωΛ > -1 for the EoS parameter. This correspondence allows reconstructing the potentials and the dynamics for the scalar fields models, if we set some constraints for the model parameters, which describe the accelerated expansion of the Universe.

The contribution of vacuum fluctuations to the cosmological constant is reconsidered studying the dependence on the used regularisation scheme. Then alternative explanations for the observed accelerated expansion of the universe in the present epoch are introduced which either modify gravity or add a new component of matter, dubbed dark energy. The chapter closes with some comments on attempts to quantise gravity.

Unknown Component

The accelerated expansion of the Universe is one of the main discoveries of the past decades, indicating the presence of an unknown component: the dark energy. Evidence of its presence is being gathered by a succession of observational experiments with increasing precision in its measurements. However, the most accepted model for explaining the dynamic of our Universe, the so-called Lambda cold dark matter, faces several problems related to the nature of such energy component. This has led to a growing exploration of alternative models attempting to solve those drawbacks. In this review, we briefly summarize the characteristics of a (non-exhaustive) list of dark energy models as well as some of the most used cosmological samples. Next, we discuss how to constrain each model’s parameters using observational data. Finally, we summarize the status of dark energy modeling.

The vacuum catastrophe results from the disagreement between the theoretical value of the energy density of the vacuum in quantum field theory and the estimated one observed in cosmology. In a similar attempt in which the ultraviolet catastrophe was solved, we search for the value of the cosmological constant by brute-force through computation. We explore combinations of the fundamental constants in physics performing a dimensional analysis, in search of an equation resulting in the measured energy density of the vacuum or cosmological constant that is assumed to cause the accelerated expansion of the universe.

Rule Out

Dark energy and the accelerated expansion of the universe have been the direct predictions of the distant supernovae Ia observations which are also supported, indirectly, by the observations of the CMB anisotropies, gravitational lensing and the studies of galaxy clusters. Today these results are accommodated in what has become the concordance cosmology: a universe with flat spatial sections t = constant with about 70% of its energy in the form of Einstein's cosmological constant Λ and about 25% in the form of dark matter (made of perhaps weakly-interacting massive particles). Though the composition is weird, the theory has shown remarkable successes at many fronts. However, we find that as more and more supernovae Ia are observed, more accurately and towards higher redshift, the probability that the data are well-explained by the cosmological models decreases alarmingly, finally ruling out the concordance model at more than 95% confidence level. This raises doubts against the "standard candle"-hypothesis of the supernovae Ia and their use in constraining the cosmological models. We need a better understanding of the entire SN Ia phenomenon in order to extract cosmological consequences from them.

The present-day accelerated expansion of the universe is naturally addressed within the Brans–Dicke theory just by using holographic dark energy model with inverse of Hubble scale as IR cutoff and power law temporal behavior of scale factor. It is also concluded that if the universe continues to expand, then one day it might be completely filled with dark energy.
