Intermediate inflation or late time acceleration? (Q2275079): Difference between revisions

Summary: The expansion rate of ``intermediate inflation'' lies between the exponential and power law expansion but corresponding accelerated expansion does not start at the onset of cosmological evolution. Present study of ``intermediate inflation'' reveals that it admits scaling solution and has got a natural exit form it at a later epoch of cosmic evolution, leading to late time acceleration. The corresponding scalar field responsible for such feature is also found to behave as a tracker field for gravity with canonical kinetic term.
