Distance measurements to Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) indicate that the Universe is accelerating and that two-thirds of the critical energy density exists in a dark-energy component with negative pressure. Distance measurements to SNe Ia can be used to distinguish between different possibilities for the dark energy, and if it is an evolving scalar field, to reconstruct the scalar-field potential. We derive the reconstruction equations and address the feasibility of this approach by Monte-Carlo simulation.

  1. A Spectrum of Cosmological Rips and Their Observational Signatures

    astro-ph.CO 2025-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A unified dark energy model with sigmoid correction generates a spectrum of rip futures that all fit DESI, Pantheon+, and CMB data at the same level as ΛCDM.

  2. Effective Phantom Dark Energy: What Cosmological Reconstruction Does and Does Not Imply

    astro-ph.CO 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 3.0 of 10

    Effective phantom dark energy is a background-level reconstruction that does not imply fundamental pathologies such as ghost instabilities or null energy condition violation by the underlying stress tensor.

  3. The distance modulus in dark energy and Cardassian cosmologies via the hypergeometric function

    astro-ph.CO 2019-09 reject novelty 2.0 of 10

    A closed-form hypergeometric and Taylor treatment of dark-energy and Cardassian distance integrals is fitted to SN and GRB data, but the key integral identity and the data treatment are flawed.
