DESCRIPTION:The astronomical observations indicate that the expansion of o
 ur Universe accelerates. To fit observations\, one has to admit that about
  two thirds of the total energy density of the Universe consist of dark en
 ergy: the still unknown component with a negative pressure. I will review 
 the approaches that are currently adopted for the explanation of the accel
 eration of our Universe. Starting from the basics of cosmology I will brie
 fly touch upon the observational evidence for dark energy. The important p
 art of a talk is devoted to a number of scalar field models of dark energy
  such as quintessence\, k-essence\, tachyon\, phantom and ghost condensate
 . Other alternatives to dark energy (e.g. modified gravity) will also be d
 iscussed.\n\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/1494/
