The purpose of this paper is to investigate the role of wet dark fluid in axially symmetric cosmological model within the frame work of bimetric theory of gravitation proposed by Rosen (Gen. Relativ. Gravit. 4:435, 1973). In this theory, it is observed that there is no contribution from wet dark fluid.     

Five Dimensional Axially Symmetric String Cosmological Models with Bulk Viscous Fluid

Bulk viscous fluid distribution with massive strings in LRS Bianchi type-1 space time is studied. The exact solutions of the field equations are obtained by using the equation of state ρ=−λ and ρ=λ. We observed that the bulk viscous fluid does not survive for ρ=−λ whereas it survives for ρ=λ. Some physical and geometrical properties of the models are discussed.     

Plane Symmetric Cosmological Macro Models in Self-creation Theory of Gravitation

We have constructed a class of plane symmetric macro models in Barber's second self-creation theory, when the source of the gravitational field is a macro matter field representing perfect fluid and satisfying the gamma-law equation of state p=(-1), where =4/3 and 3/2. The solutions of the field equations are derived and their physical aspects are studied.     

Massive String Cloud Cosmologies in Saez-Ballester Theory of Gravitation

String cloud cosmological models are studied using spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi type VI₀ metric in Saez-Ballester Scalar-Tensor theory of gravitation. The field equations are solved for massive string cloud with particles attached to them. A more general linear equation of state of the cosmic string tension density with the proper energy density of the universe is considered instead of taking any particular relationships like pure geometric string or the case of the p-string. The pure geometric string and p-string solutions can be easily inferred from the models. For all viable models the possible limiting values of the linear connection between the proper energy density and string tension density have been calculated. The physical and kinematical properties of the models have been discussed in detail.

It is shown that cosmic string does not survive for ρ+λ=0 whereas it survives for the equations of state ρ=(1+ω)λ (Takabayasi string) and ρ=λ (Geometric string). Some physical and geometrical properties of the exhibited model are discussed.

Also, some physical and kinematics properties of the model are discussed.

The spatially homogeneous and totally anisotropic Bianchi type-II cosmological solutions of massive strings have been investigated in the presence of the magnetic field in the framework of scale-covariant theory of gravitation formulated by Canuto et al. (Phys. Rev. Lett. 39, 429, 1977). With the help of special law of variation for Hubble^’s parameter proposed by Berman (Nuovo Cimento 74, 182, 1983) string cosmological model is obtained in this theory. We use the power law relation between scalar field ? and scale factor R to find the solutions. Some physical and kinematical properties of the model are also discussed.

Bianchi type-I dark energy model with variable equation of state (EoS) parameter is presented in a scalar-tensor theory of gravitation proposed by Brans and Dicke (Phys. Rev. 124:925, 1961). To get a determinate solution of the field equations we will take the help of special law of variation for Hubble’s parameter presented by Bermann (Nuovo Cimento B. 74:182, 1983) which yields a dark energy cosmological model with negative constant deceleration parameter. It is observed that this dark energy cosmological model always represents an accelerated and expanding universe and also consistent with the recent observations of type-Ia supernovae. Some physical and geometrical properties of the model are also discussed.

Some physical and geometrical properties of the models are also discussed.

In this paper we have investigated bulk viscous fluid plane symmetric dust magnetized string cosmological model. To get a deterministic model, it is assumed that ε=λ, and a relation between metric potential B=RA ⁿ . The behaviour of the model in the presence and absence of magnetic field together with physical and geometrical aspects of the model are also discussed.     

Plane Symmetric String Cosmological Model in Modified Theory of General Relativity

It is shown that homogeneous plane symmetric string cosmological model for Takabayasi string i.e. ρ=(1+ω)λ does not exist in Barber’s second self creation theory. Further it is found that the string cosmological model in this theory exist only when ω=0. Therefore model for ρ=λ (geometric string) is constructed. Some physical and geometrical properties of the model are discussed.     

Spatially Homogeneous Bianchi Type V Cosmological Model in the Scale-Covariant Theory of Gravitation

We discuss spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi type-V spacetime filled with a perfect fluid in the framework of the seale-covariant theory of gravitation proposed by Canuto et al. By applying the law of variation for Hubble＇s parameter, exact solutions of the field equations are obtained, which correspond to the model of the universe having a big-bang type singularity at the initial time t = 0. The cosmological model, evolving from the initial singularity, expands with power-law expansion and gives essentially an empty space for a large time. The physical and dynamical properties of the model are also discussed.     

Power Asymptotes of Homogeneous Cosmological Models in Einstein's Theory of Gravitation

For the Bianchi-types I, V, VII, VIII, and IX, the asymptotes of the metric, which show a power-like dependence on the synchronized time t near the cosmological singularity, are investigated. Comparing the influence of the terms which in Einstein's equations describe time-derivatives, spatial curvature, and matter, on the behaviour of the asymptotes, different assumptions and conjectures usually used in literature are discussed for the equations of state p = β? (0 ? β ? 1). For Bianchi-type-IX models both the outgoing power-asymptotes and the oscillatory phase for t → 0 are considered.     

Bulk Viscous Cosmological Model with Interacting Dark Fluids

We study a cosmological model for a spatially flat Universe whose constituents are a dark energy field and a matter field comprising baryons and dark matter. The constituents are assumed to interact with each other, and a non-equilibrium pressure is introduced to account for irreversible processes. We take the non-equilibrium pressure to be proportional to the Hubble parameter within the framework of a first-order thermodynamic theory. The dark energy and matter fields are coupled by their barotropic indexes, which depend on the ratio between their energy densities. We adjust the free parameters of the model to optimize the fits to the Hubble parameter data. We compare the viscous model with the non-viscous one, and show that the irreversible processes cause the dark-energy and matter-density parameters to become equal and the decelerated–accelerated transition to occur at earlier times. Furthermore, the density and deceleration parameters and the distance modulus have the correct behavior, consistent with a viable scenario of the present status of the Universe.
