abstract

Models where Dark Matter and Dark Energy interact with each other have been proposed to solve the coincidence problem. We review the motivations underlying the need to introduce such interaction, its influence on the background dynamics and how it modifies the evolution of linear perturbations. We test models using the most recent observational data and we find that the interaction is compatible with the current astronomical and cosmological data. Finally, we describe the forthcoming data sets from current and future facilities that are being constructed or designed that will allow a clearer understanding of the physics of the dark sector.

Interacting Dark Sector field theory with phantom crossing

astro-ph.CO · 2026-05-19 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

An interacting dark sector model with Yukawa-coupled fermionic DM and Born-Infeld tachyonic scalar produces recent double phantom crossing in effective w_DE, fits DESI+Planck+SN data, and predicts ultralight DM mass of order 1.9e-3 eV under naturalness assumptions.

Non-minimal fluid Lagrangian couplings

gr-qc · 2026-05-15 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Derives modified Einstein and fluid equations for non-minimal matter-Lagrangian-curvature couplings and demonstrates non-equivalence of Schutz and Brown fluid formulations.

Study of dark interactions through strong gravitational lenses

astro-ph.CO · 2026-05-15 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Strong gravitational lensing data from early-type galaxies and Abell 1689 constrain three sign-changeable dark-sector interaction models, yielding negative interaction strengths larger in magnitude than prior probes and an acceleration transition at z_t ~1.8-2.1.

Generalizing the CPL Parametrization through Dark Sector Interaction

astro-ph.CO · 2026-04-28 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0 · 2 refs

Generalized interacting dark energy models with constant or dynamical couplings yield analytical density expressions but are not preferred over LambdaCDM by Bayesian evidence from DESI, Pantheon+, and CMB data.

Measuring neutrino mass in light of ACT DR6 and DESI DR2

astro-ph.CO · 2026-03-11 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

New ACT and DESI data yield model-dependent upper limits on sum of neutrino masses, with holographic dark energy giving the tightest bounds and a consistent preference for degenerate hierarchy.

The Quintom theory of dark energy after DESI DR2

astro-ph.CO · 2025-05-30 · unverdicted · novelty 3.0

This review traces the history of dynamical dark energy, presents the no-go theorem against single-field crossing of w = -1, and surveys viable Quintom constructions including multi-field models and modified gravity in light of DESI DR2 hints.
