The Quintessence of Quiescence
نویسندگان
چکیده
Neurogenic niches in the adult mammalian brain are composed of heterogeneous populations of neural stem cells. In this issue of Neuron, Codega et al. (2014) isolate quiescent neural stem cells from the adult subventricular zone and demonstrate their stem cell characteristics.

Quintessence, Flat Potential and String/M Theory Axion
A slow-rolling scalar field (Quintessence) has been proposed as the origin of accelerating universe at present. We discuss some features of quintessence, particularly those related with the flatness of its potential. We distinguish two types of quintessences, a metrical quintessence which couples to the particle physics sector only through the mixing with the spacetime metric and a non-metrical...
متن کاملCorrelated Isocurvature Fluctuation of Quintessence and Curvaton Scenario
We consider cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy in models with quintessence taking into account of isocurvature fluctuation in the quintessence. It is shown that, if the primordial fluctuation of the quintessence has a correlation with the adiabatic density fluctuations, CMB angular power spectrum Cl at low multipoles can be suppressed. Possible scenario of generating correlated mixtur...
متن کاملReconstructing the potentials for the quintessence and tachyon dark energy, from the holographic principle
We propose an holographic quintessence and tachyon models of dark energy. The correspondence between the quintessence and tachyon energy densities with the holographic density, allows the reconstruction of the potentials and the dynamics for the quintessence and tachyon fields, in flat FRW background. The proposed infrared cut-off for the holographic energy density works for two cases of the co...
متن کاملCoupling Quintessence to Inflation in Supergravity
The evolution of the quintessence field during a phase of chaotic inflation is studied. The inflaton φ and the quintesssence field Q are described in a supergravity framework where the coupling between the inflaton and quintessence is induced by non-renormalisable operators suppressed by the Planck mass. We show that the resulting quintessence potential during inflation possesses a time–depende...
متن کاملThe SUGRA Quintessence Model Coupled to the MSSM
We study the cosmological evolution of the universe when quintessence is modeled within supergravity, supersymmetry is broken in a hidden sector, and we also include observable matter in a third independent sector. We find that the presence of hidden sector supersymmetry breaking leads to modifications of the quintessence potential. We focus on the coupling of the SUGRA quintessence model to th...
