Quintessence Model and Cosmic Microwave Background

Abstract

A particular kind of quintessence is considered, with equation of motion $p_Q/{\rho }_Q=-1$, corresponding to a cosmological term with time-dependence $\Lambda (t)=\Lambda (t_0)(R(t_0)/R(t){)}^P$ and we examine how values of ${\Omega }_m$ and ${\Omega }_{\Lambda }$ depend on $P$.
