Abstract: Dark energy is modelled by a Bose-Einstein gas of particles with an attractive interaction. It is coupled to cold dark matter, within a flat universe, for the late-expansion description, producing variations in particle-number densities. The model's parameters, and physical association, are: $Omeg{a}_{G0}$, $Omeg{a}_{m0}$, the dark-energy rest-mass energy density and the dark-matter term scaling as a mass term, respectively; $Omeg{a}_{i0}$, the self-interaction intensity; $x$, the energy exchange rate. Energy conservation relates such parameters. The Hubble equation omits $Omeg{a}_{G0}$, but also contains $h$, the present-day expansion rate of the flat Friedman--Lem^aitre--Robertson--Walker metric, and $Omeg{a}_{b0}$, the baryon energy density, used as a prior. This results in the four effective chosen parameters $Omeg{a}_{b0}$, $h$, $Omeg{a}_{m0}$, $Omeg{a}_{i0}$, fit with the Hubble expansion rate $H(z)$, and data from its value today, near distance, and supernovas. We derive wide $1sigma$ and $2sigma$ likelihood regions compatible with definite positive total CDM and IBEG mass terms. Additionally, the best-fit value of parameter $x$ relieves the coincidence problem, and a second potential coincidence problem related to the choice of $Omeg{a}_{G0}$.
