A model of compact nuclei of galaxies as spherically-symmetric star clusters is proposed. A concept of the equation of state for star clusters in statistical equilibrium is introduced (galactic nuclei are systems in statistical equilibrium if their age is of the order of the age of the Universe). It is shown that a statistically equilibrium star cluster is described by the equation of state of a polytrope P = aρ3, and with its help the main parameters of compact nuclei of galaxies are calculated. The formula M = 2.524GR5/a for mass M and radius R of the cluster is derived.

Using the non-extensive Tsallis entropy and the holographic hypothesis, we propose a new dark energy (DE) model with timescale as infrared (IR) cutoff. Considering the age of the Universe as well as the conformal time as IR cutoffs, we investigate the cosmological consequences of the proposed DE models and study the evolution of the Universe filled by a pressureless matter and the obtained DE candidates. We find that although this model can describe the late time acceleration and the density, deceleration and the equation of state parameters show satisfactory behavior by themselves, these models are classically unstable unless the interaction between the two dark sectors of the Universe is taken into account. In addition, the results of the existence of a mutual interaction between the cosmos sectors are also addressed. We find out that the interacting models are stable at the classical level which is in contrast to the original interacting agegraphic dark energy models which are classically unstable [K. Y. Kim, H. W. Lee and Y. S. Myung, Phys. Lett. B 660, 118 (2008)].

A slightly different power law-scaling fits to the picture of our 13.7 billion years old flat universe which is expanding presently at 67 km/s/Mpc with an acceleration. The model which is an attempt to retain power-law scaling in the light of the accepted facts about the universe we are living in, has a constant effective equation of state parameter as the cosmic fluid is a solution of matter, radiation and dark energy. It is successful in explaining the acceleration of universe which the normal power law fails if the present Hubble parameter is 67 km/s/Mpc and age of the universe is 13.7 billion years, and it is free from the defect of singularity.

A time-dependent phenomenological model of Λ, viz. [Formula: see text], is selected to investigate the Λ-CDM cosmology. The time-dependent form of the equation-of-state parameter ω is derived and it has been possible to obtain the sought-for flip of sign of the deceleration parameter q. The present age of the Universe, calculated for some specific values of the parameters, agrees very well with the observational data.

SummaryMeasuring distances back to a significant portion of the look back time probes the make-up of the Universe, through the effects of different types of matter on the cosmological geometry and expansion. Over the past five years two teams have used type Ia supernovae to trace the expansion of the Universe to a look back time more than 70% of the age of the Universe. These observations show an accelerating Universe which is best explained by a cosmological constant, or other form of dark energy with an equation of state near w = p/ρ = −1. There are many possible lurking systematic effects. However, while difficult to completely eliminate, none of these appears large enough to challenge current results. However, as future experiments attempt to better characterize the equation of state of the matter leading to the observed acceleration, these systematic effects will ultimately limit progress.
