According to the Lambda-CDM model, the universe would need to have an average matter density roughly seventeen times greater than its measured value today in order for the effects of dark energy to be overcome and the universe to eventually collapse. This is in spite of the fact that, according to the Lambda-CDM model, any increase in matter density would result in

In general, dark energy is a catch-all term for any hypothesized field with negative pressure, usually with a density that changes as the universe expands.
