  本书是关于暗能量的英文专著，详细地介绍了暗能量领域的理论基础、研究方法和发展水平，内容包含理论推演和实验观测数据分析。本书从引力理论和宇宙学背景知识讲起，引入并探讨了暗能量的各种模型及相关理论，如超对称、全息原理、人择原理、量子宇宙学、修正的引力理论、反馈和各种唯象模型等等。在系统讲解理论推演的同时，本书对于实验观测的结果也作了全面介绍，并且较为详细地讲解了数据分析的方法。通过实验提供的数据，本书对各种暗能量模型与实验的比对作了介绍。进一步地，还对各个模型的优劣做了比较。本书适合宇宙学、粒子物理、引力理论等领域的科研工作者和研究生作为参考，也可作为试图了解并进入这一研究方向的研究生的指导性读物，还可以帮助感兴趣的非专业读者了解这个迅速发展、迷人的领域。

本书是国内暗能量研究方面的第一本专著。暗能量是当今物理学的一大研究热点，同时也是最受关注的未解之谜之一。暗能量研究的理论渊源可以追溯到爱因斯坦的广义相对论场方程中的宇宙常数项的提出。其真正为物理学界所格外关注，则是因为宇宙加速膨胀的发现。而宇宙加速膨胀的发现，正是2011年诺贝尔物理学奖的获奖成果。本书内容系统而丰富，涵盖了暗能量研究的几乎所有方面，包括理论研究和实验观测等，是国内相关研究的独一无二的参考书，也是引领研究生进入这一领域的优秀的指导材料。

   
另外要特别指出的是，本书为彩色印刷，配有大量精美图片，在给予读者丰富、深邃的知识的同时，也带来了形式上的美感。
