THEORETICAL MODELS OF DARK ENERGY [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Modern Physics D, 2012
Mounting observational data confirm that about 73% of the energy density consists of dark energy which is responsible for the current accelerated expansion of the Universe. We present observational evidences and dark energy projects. We then review various theoretical ideas that have been proposed to explain the origin of dark energy; they contain the ...

The Ontology of Theoretical Modelling: Models as Make-Believe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The descriptions and theoretical laws scientists write down when they model a system are often false of any real system. And yet we commonly talk as if there were objects that satisfy the scientists’ assumptions and as if we may learn about their ...

Theoretical solar models [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1997
In the last two decades the large amount of accurate helioseismic data has open a new possibility to sound the stellar interiors and to test the stellar evolution theory. This has particularly impulsed a critical reexamination of the basic assumptions and physical inputs in solar modelling.
