THE COSMOLOGICAL STANDARD MODEL
0
0m
The non-relativistic, pressureless, matter is predominantly dark and non-baryonic (from Big Bang Nucleosynthesis).
The universe seems to be dominated by a smooth component that drives the accelerated expansion. The spatial curvature is very close to zero (from CMB).

SOME IMPORTANT QUESTIONS:
- What is the nature of the Dark Matter?
- What is the nature of the Dark Energy?
-Could these components be different aspects of the same substance?
UNIFYING DARK MATTER OR QUARTESSENCE
A prototype – the generalized Chaplygin Gas.
• Chaplygin Gas (=1) – initially suggested as an alternative to quintessenceKamenshchik et al. PLB 511, 265 (2001).• Motivation: D-Branes.
Dark matter regime Dark energy regime
For every quartessence model, the density decreases towards to a minimum value min and remains constant. In this phase, it behaves like a cosmological constant (w=-1). w<-1 is forbidden for such models

PERTURBATION THEORY IN COSMOLOGY
Linear evolution equations in synchronous gauge(A=B=0) for a multi-component fluid.
Assuming vanishing spatial curvature and anisotropic stress, and conservation of the energy-momentum tensor of each component.
ORIGIN OF THE PROBLEM
SOLUTION:
A finite sound speed in recent times is responsible for the instabilities in the power spectrum

• We have on known manner of obtain quartessence models, distinct from CDM, in agreement with Large scale structure and CMB data: considering entropy perturbations;
• Observational constraints on the step-like model impose which implies that the transition has occurred at .
• The hypothesis of unifying dark matter cannot be ruled out with the present observational data.
