3. “Quintessence’’ models of DE A classical, minimally-coupled scalar field evolves in a potential V  while its energy density and pressure combine to produce a negative equation of state w=p/  Fine-tuning problem: in analogy with  the need to tune initial values of  to get the observed energy density and equation of state; “Coincidence’’ problem: why  m ~    just today ?  Search for ATTRACTOR SOLUTIONS (“tracking fields”)

5. R-boost Klein-Gordon equation in EQ: Since R diverges as a -3 as a  0 (if non-relativistic species are present), an “effective” potential is generated in the KG equation, boosting the dynamics of  at early times.  EQ admits tracking trajectories AND they are good trackers (large basin of attraction)
