Phantom Appearance of Non-phantom Matter in Anisotropic Cosmological Model

Two cosmological models with non-phantom matter having the same expansion of the universe as phantom cosmologies are constructed in anisotropic Bianchi type-V universe. The exact solutions to the corresponding Einstein field equations have been obtained. The statefinder diagnostic pair i.e. {r,s} parameters have been obtained for disordered radiation i.e. γ=1/3. We have also discussed the well-known astrophysical phenomena, namely the look-back time, luminosity distance and event horizon with redshift.     

Bianchi Type-I String Cosmological Model in Creation-Field

Hoyle-Narlikar C-field has been introduced to study cosmic strings in Bianchi type-I space-time. The solutions have been studied when the creation field C is a function of time t only. The geometrical and physical aspects for the models have also been studied.     

Tilted Bianchi Type-I Cosmological Model in Lyra Geometry

Tilted Bianchi-I cosmological model is investigated in the frame work of Lyra (in Math. Z. 54:52, 1951) Geometry. Exact solutions to the field equations are derived when the metric potentials are functions of cosmic time only. Some physical and geometrical properties of the solutions are also discussed.

Bianchi Type-I Space-Time with Variable Cosmological Constant

A spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi type-I perfect fluid model is considered with variable cosmological constant. Einstein’s field equations are solved by using a law of variation for mean Hubble’s parameter, which is related to average scale factor and that yields a constant value of deceleration parameter. An exact and singular Bianchi-I model is presented, where the cosmological constant remains positive and decreases with the cosmic time. It is found that the solutions are consistent with the recent observations of type Ia supernovae. A detailed study of physical and kinematical properties of the model is carried out.     

LRS Bianchi Type-I Dark Energy Cosmological Model in Brans-Dicke Theory of Gravitation

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.     

Dark Energy with Generalized Equation of State in Bianchi Type-I Cosmological Model

Dark energy with the usually used equation of state p=γρ, where γ=const<0 is hydrodynamically unstable. To overcome this drawback we consider the cosmology of a perfect fluid with a linear equation of state of a more general form p=α(ρ−ρ ₀), where the constants α and ρ ₀ are free parameters. The anisotropic Bianchi type-I cosmological model filled with dark energy has been considered. A generalized equation of state for the dark energy component of the universe has been used. The exact solutions to the corresponding Einstein field equations and the statefinder diagnostic pair i.e. {r,s} parameters have been obtained in three interesting cases (i) when ρ _Λ>0 and A>0 (ii) when ρ _Λ>0 and A<0 and (iii) when ρ _Λ<0 and A>0 at the singularities i.e. t→0 and t→±∞.     

Exact Bianchi Type-I Cosmological Models in a Scalar-Tensor Theory

In this paper, a spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi type-I space-time filled with perfect fluid is investigated within the framework of a scalar-tensor theory proposed by Saez and Ballester. Two different physically viable models of the universe are obtained by using a special law of variation for Hubble’s parameter that yields a constant value of deceleration parameter. One of the models is found to generalize a model recently investigated by Reddy et al. (Astrophys. Space Sci. 306:171, 2006). The Einstein’s field equations are solved exactly and the solutions are found to be consistent with the recent observations of type Ia supernovae. A detailed study of physical and kinematical properties of the models is carried out.     

Bianchi Type-I Cosmological Model Filled with Viscous Fluid in a Modified Brans-Dicke Cosmology

Adding the cosmological term, which is assumed to be variable in Brans-Dicke theory we have discussed about a Bianchi type-I cosmological model filled with viscous fluid with free gravitational field of Petrov type-D. The effect of viscousity on various kinematical parameters has been discussed. Finally, this model has been transformed to the original form (1961) of Brans-Dicke theory including a variable cosmological term.     

Bianchi .Type-I Massive String Magnetized Barotropic Perfect Fluid Cosmological Model in General Relativity

Bianchi type-I massive string cosmological model with magnetic field of barotropic perfect fluid distribution through the techniques used by Latelier and Stachel is investigated. To obtain the deterministic model of the universe, it is assumed that the universe is filled with barotropic perfect fluid distribution. The magnetic field is due to electric current produced Mong the x-axis with infinite electrical conduictivity. The behaviour of the model in the presence and absence of magnetic field together with other physical aspects is further discussed.     

Generalized Chaplygin Gas Dominated Anisotropic Bianchi Type-I Cosmological Models

We present Bianchi type-I cosmological models in the presence of generalized Chaplygin gas and perfect fluid for early and late time epochs. Exact solutions of Einstein’s field equations for this model are obtained. The general solutions of gravitational field equations are expressed in an exact parametric form, with average scale factor as parameter. In the limiting cases of small and large values of the average scale factor, the solutions of the field equations are expressed in exact analytic forms. Moreover, this model predicts that the expansion of Universe is accelerating for the late times. The physical and geometrical properties of the corresponding cosmological models are discussed.     

The Scalar-photon Coupling with Mie Invariant Within the Scope of Bianchi Type-I Cosmological Model

We investigate the Bianchi type-I cosmological model with the scalar and electromagnetic fields possessing non-minimal couplings. They contain the Mie invariant that leads to the flat Friedman’s cosmological model. We found the lagrangian for interaction, which the isotropization process of the expansion takes place. Two cases are considered, when the Mie invariant is constat or time-dependent. We study the canonical scalar field and the phantom one.     

New Class of Magnetized Inhomogeneous Bianchi Type-I Cosmological Model with Variable Magnetic Permeability in Lyra Geometry

Inhomogeneous Bianchi type-I cosmological model with electro-magnetic field based on Lyra geometry is investigated. Using separated method, the Einstein field equations have been solved analytically with the aid of Mathematica program. A new class of exact solutions have been obtained by considering the potentials of metric and displacement field are functions of coordinates t and x. We have assumed that F ₁₂ is the only non-vanishing component of electro-magnetic field tensor F _ij . The Maxwell’s equations show that F ₁₂ is the function of x alone whereas the magnetic permeability is the function of x and t both. To get the deterministic solution, it has been assumed that the expansion scaler Θ in the model is proportional to the value $\sigma_{1}^{1}$ of the shear tensor $\sigma_{i}^{j}$ . Some physical and geometric properties of the model are also discussed and graphed.     

A New Class of Bianchi Type-I Cosmological Models in Lyra Geometry

This paper deals with Bianchi type-V cosmological models of the universe filled with a bulk viscous cosmic fluid in the framework of general relativity. A new class of exact solutions has been obtained by considering various well established power law relations among scale factor, cosmological and gravitational constants and cosmic time. Some physical and geometrical behaviors of the models have also been discussed. It has been found that all the models are in fair agreement of observational results.
