Anisotropic Quintessence stars

Abstract: We propose a relativistic model for quintessence stars with the combination of an anisotropic pressure corresponding to normal matter and a quintessence dark energy having a characteristic parameter {\omega}q such that -1 <{\omega}q < - 1/3. We discuss various physical features of the model and show that the model satisfies all the regularity conditions and can provide stable equilibrium configurations.
