Consider the energy-momentum tensor Tμv = (p+p) uu+P9μ applied to the matter/energy distribution in the universe on large scales, and assume an equation of state of the form p = wp, with w a constant. Determine the type of matter/energy dominating the universe if the energy-momentum tensor is traceless, that is, T"μ = 0.
