Key element is whether (aH)-1= å-1 is increasing or decreasing. I.e. is there acceleration: >0.
Also, å~aH~H/T~T/Mp for “classical” radiation, but during inflation this redshifts away and quantum particle creation enters.

Inflation
The conformal horizon scale (aH)-1 tells us when a comoving scale (e.g. perturbation mode) leaves or enters the horizon.

Acceleration = CurvatureAcceleration = Curvature
The Principle of Equivalence teaches that
Acceleration = Gravity = Curvature
Acceleration over time will get v=gh, so z = v = gh (gravitational redshift).

Define reduced scalar curvature
R = R/(12H2) = (1/2) [1 + aa/ å2] = (1/2)(1-q)
Note that division between acceleration and deceleration occurs for R =1/2 (q=0).
Superacceleration (phantom models) is not (a) > 0, but (a/a) > 0, i.e. R > 1.

Suppose we admit our ignorance:
H2 = (8/3) m + H2(a)
Effective equation of state:
w(a) = -1 - (1/3) dln (H2) / dln a
Modifications of the expansion history are equivalent to time variation w(a). Period.
Observations that map out expansion history a(t), or w(a), tell us about the fundamental physics of dark energy.

Scalar fields can roll:

2) slow -- acceleration [Quintessence]
3) steadily -- acceleration deceleration [Linear potential]
4) oscillate -- potential minimum, pseudoscalar, PNGB [V~ n]

Scalar Field DynamicsScalar Field Dynamics
The cosmological constant has w=-1=constant. Essentially no other model does.
Dynamics in the form of w/H = w = dw/dln a can be detected by cosmological observations.
Dynamics also implies spatial inhomogeneities. Scale is given by effective mass
meff = V˝
This is of order H ~ 10-33 eV, so clustering difficult on subhorizon scales. Vaguely detectable through full sky CMB-LSS crosscorrelation.

Deceleration and AccelerationDeceleration and Acceleration
CMB power spectrum measures n-1 and inflation.
Nonzero ISW measures breakdown of matter domination: at early times (radiation) and late times (dark energy).
Large scales (low l) not precisely measurable due to cosmic variance. So look for better way to probe decay of gravitational potentials.
