Chaplygin gas

Chaplygin gas[1][2] which occurs in certain theories of cosmology, is a hypothetical substance that satisfies an exotic equation of state in the form where is the pressure, is the density, with and a positive constant. The substance is named after Sergey Chaplygin.

In some models, generalized Chaplygin gas is considered, where is a parameter which can take on values .
