Abstract

The bulk of the matter of the universe is believed to be in the form of dark energy, which makes up about 70% of the total matter content of the universe. Since its discovery around 1998, researchers have been trying to find out about the nature of this dark energy. Despite a lot of effort, there is still no proper explanation for it. Two possible candidates for dark energy are Chaplygin gas and bulk viscosity. There is a lot of similarity in these two proposed forms. The relationship between them is explored in this presentation, and it is shown that mathematically, they are in some sense, equivalent, although their physical interpretation is different.
