State finder and Om diagnostics in modified and generalised Chaplygin gas from recent data

Abstract

A modified and generalised Chaplygin gas (MCG, [Formula: see text] and GCG, [Formula: see text]) has been separately chosen here as a constituent of the universe. Concept of state finder and Om diagnostics are introduced to track the dark energy in the models. Here, observed Hubble data (OHD) and binned Pantheon data of supernovae are used to determine the best-fit equation-of-state (EoS) parameters of these models and these are compared with the [Formula: see text]CDM model. The best-fit value and expected values of cosmological jerk parameter [Formula: see text], snap parameter [Formula: see text] are determined, which are close to each other. A plot of [Formula: see text] with red-shift, with themselves, as well as with deceleration parameter [Formula: see text], shows the evolution of the universe and its possible future. Variations of [Formula: see text] and EoS parameter [Formula: see text] with red-shift show acceleration–deceleration phase transition in the recent past. Lastly, the state finder pair [Formula: see text] and Om diagnostic have been utilized to discriminate the models.
