Description

The recent GW170817 measurement favors the simplest Dark Energy models, such as a single scalar field. Quintessence models can be classified in two classes, freezing and thawing, depending on whether the equation of state decreases towards −1 or departs from it. In this work we put observational constraints on the parameters governing the equations of state of tracking freezing, scaling freezing and thawing models using updated data, from the Planck 2015 release, Joint Light-Curve Analysis and Baryonic Acoustic Oscillations. Because of the current tensions on the value of the Hubble parameter H0 , unlike previous authors, we let this parameter vary, which modifies significantly the results. Finally, we also derive constraints on neutrino masses in each of these scenarios.
