13 Dark Energy Theory 1970s – Why  M ~  k ? 1980s – Inflation! Not curvature. 1990s – Why  M ~   ? 2000s – Quintessence! Not  ? Cosmological constant is an ugly duckling Dynamic scalar field is a beautiful swan Lensing   =0.7 +0.1 -0.2 Chiba & Yoshii Supernovae   =0.72 +0.08 -0.09 SCP, HiZ Ly  Forest   =0.66 +0.09 -0.13 D.

Fine Tuning Puzzle – why so small? Coincidence Puzzle – why now?

15 Scalar Field: Beautiful Swan Astrophysicist: Friedmann equations – (å/a) 2 =(8  /3)(  m +   ) ä/a=-(4  /3)(  m +   +3p  ) Field Theorist: Lagrangian – L =(1/2)  a   a  -V(  )  (1/2)  2 -V T ab =  a  b  - L g ab  =K+Vp=K-Vw=p/  = (K+V) / (K-V)  [-1, +1] Slow Roll (Inflation) K << V  p=-   w=-1 Free Field (kination) V << K  p=+   w=+1 Coherent Oscillations (Axions) =  p=0  w=0 (matter).

What is the dark energy?
