Cosmology of nonlinear oscillations
Copyright policy )Cosmology of nonlinear oscillations
The nonlinear oscillations of a scalar field are shown to have cosmological equations of state with $w = p / ρ$ ranging from $-1 < w < 1$. We investigate the possibility that the dark energy is due to such oscillations.
