Unified Lagrangian for Tachyon, Quintessence, and Phantom Scalar Fields

Tanisha Joshi · arXiv (Cornell University) · 2023

This paper presents a novel unified Lagrangian density that combines the behaviors of tachyon, quintessence, and phantom scalar fields within the realms of theoretical physics and cosmology. The unified Lagrangian is formulated, where \(f(α)\) is a function that accommodates different scenarios and captures the distinct characteristics of these scalar fields. The potential function \(V(ϕ)\) is incorporated to account for the specific properties of the scalar fields. The study employs numerical simulations in Python to thoroughly analyze the dynamics of the scalar fields for various \(α\) values, investigating the cosmological behavior.
