Abstract

In this work we explore an alternative phenomenological model to Chaplygin gas proposed by H. Hova et. al., consisting on a modification of a perfect fluid, to explain the dynamics of dark matter and dark energy at cosmological scales immerse in a flat or curved universe. Adopting properties similar to a Chaplygin gas, the proposed model is a mixture of dark matter and dark energy components parameterized by only one free parameter denoted as . We focus on contrasting this model with the most recent cosmological observations of Type Ia Supernovae and Hubble parameter measurements. Our joint analysis yields a value () for a flat (curved) universe. Furthermore, with these constraints we also estimate the deceleration parameter today , the acceleration-deceleration transition redshift , and the universe age Gyrs. We also report a best value of consistent at with the one reported by Planck Collaboration. Our analysis confirm the results by Hova et al, this Chaplygin gas-like is a plausible alternative to explain the nature of the dark sector of the universe.
