not sure if here or beyond standard model or higher energy physics is the best place -- mods feel free to move to best forum.

suppose dark energy does exist and is part of einstein's cc.

is there a quanta associated with it, and is it boson or fermion? if SUSY, then does this quantum also have a SUSY-partner?

could the SM be extended to include the quanta of dark energy?

I don't believe anyone knows yet. We have no observations of dark energy, and so probably can't say with any decent degree of certainty, what it is.
