Bulk viscous string cosmological models with electromagnetic field

LRS Bianchi type-I string cosmological models are studied in the frame work of general relativity when the source for the energy momentum tensor is a bulk viscous stiff fluid containing one dimensional strings embedded in electromagnetic field. The bulk viscosity is assumed to be inversely proportional to the scalar expansion. The physical and kinematical properties of the models are discussed.

Bulk viscous barotropic magnetised string cosmological models

Spatially homogeneous and anisotropic LRSBianchi type-I string cosmological models are studied in the frame work of general relativity when the source for the energy momentum tensor is a bulk viscous fluid containing one dimensional strings embedded in a magnetic field. A barotropic equation of state for the pressure and density is assumed to get determinate solutions of the field equations. The bulk viscous pressure is assumed to be proportional to the energy density. The effects of viscosity and electromagnetic field on the properties of the model are investigated. The role of bulk viscosity and electromagnetic field in getting an inflationary phase and in establishing a string phase in the universe is studied.     

Time dependent viscous string cloud cosmological models

Bianchi type-I string cosmological models are studied in Saez-Ballester theory of gravitation when the source for the energy momentum tensor is a viscous string cloud coupled to gravitational field. The bulk viscosity is assumed to vary with time and is related to the scalar expansion. The relationship between the proper energy density ρ and string tension density λ are investigated from two different cosmological models.

Multi-dimensional cosmological models in effective string gravitation. I

We consider multi-dimensional cosmological models in the low-energy field theory of strings with a boson gravitational sector containing a metric, dilaton field, and antisymmetric Kalb-Ramon field. We study the conformal properties of the action and show that in the general conformal representation the theory is equivalent to a generalized scalar-tensor theory with a Lagrangian of nongravitating matter dependent on the dilaton. We find exact solutions of the flat homogeneous anisotropic model with structure R×M¹×...×Mⁿ and with equation of state p_i=a_i in the space Mⁱ. We discuss the picture of cosmological evolution in different conformal representations.Translated fromAstrofizika, Vol. 38, No. 2, 1995.     

Multidimensional cosmological models in effective string gravitation. II

We carry out an analysis of the exact solution obtained in the first part of this work for a homogeneous and anisotropic flat cosmological model in the general conformal representation of multidimensional low-energy string theory. We show that the singular solutions with power law of variation of the scale factors of maximally symmetric subspaces and scalar field are asymptotes of the general solution in early and late stages of evolution. We study the conditions under which models of exponential, extended, and violent inflation are realized. As an illustration of the general regularities we consider the specific example of an antisymmetric Kalb-Ramond field as a gravitational source. We demonstrate the possibility of dynamic compactification of the extra dimensions.Translated fromAstrofizika, Vol. 38, No. 3, 1995.     

Some string cosmological models in Bianchi Type I space-time

We obtain some cosmological models that are exact solutions of Einstein's field equations. The metric utilized is Marder's metric which is Bianchi Type I and the curvature source is a cloud of strings which are one dimensional objects. Bianchi type cosmological models play an important role in the study of the universe on a scale which anisotropy is not ignored. In this paper we have investigated the effect of cosmic strings on the cosmic microwave background anisotropy. Various physical and geometrical properties of the model are also discussed. The solutions have reported that the cosmic microwave background anisotropy may due to the cosmic strings.     

Axially symmetric string cosmological models in Brans-Dicke theory of gravitation

Axially symmetric string cosmological models are obtained in a scalar- tensor theory of gravitation proposed by Brans and Dicke (Phys. Rev. 124:925, 1961). Some physical and geometrical properties of the models are also discussed. The models are anisotropic and free from singularities.     

Plane symmetric string cosmological models in self-creation theory of gravitation

Plane Symmetric string cosmological models are presented in Barber’s second self creation theory of gravitation and obtained Einstein’s plane symmetric string cosmological models as a special case. Some physical and geometrical properties of the models are also discussed.     

Dark energy as a manifestation of the non-constant cosmological constant

We propose a time-varying cosmological constant with a fixed equation of state, which evolves mainly through its interaction with the background during most of the long history of the universe. However, such an interaction does not exist in the very early- and the late-time universe and this produces the acceleration during these eras when it becomes very nearly a constant. It is found that after the initial inflationary phase, the cosmological constant, which we call the lambda parameter, rolls down from a large constant value to another but very small constant value and further dominates the present epoch showing up in the form of dark energy, driving the acceleration.     

The cluster abundance in cosmic string models for structure formation

We use the present observed number density of large X-ray clusters to constrain the amplitude of matter density perturbations induced by cosmic strings on the scale of 8  h ⁻¹ Mpc ( σ ₈), in both open cosmologies and flat models with a non-zero cosmological constant. We find a slightly lower value of σ ₈ than that obtained in the context of primordial Gaussian fluctuations generated during inflation. This lower normalization of σ ₈ results from the mild non-Gaussianity on cluster scales, where the one-point probability distribution function is well approximated by a χ ² distribution and thus has a longer tail than a Gaussian distribution. We also show that σ ₈ normalized using cluster abundance is consistent with the COBE normalization.     

Some magnetized bulk viscous string cosmological models in?General Relativity

Some Bianchi type-I viscous fluid string cosmological models with magnetic field are investigated. The viscosity coefficient of bulk viscous fluid is assumed to be a power function of mass density ξ(t)=ξ ₀ ρ ^m , where ξ ₀ and m are constants. To get a determinate model, we assume conditions ρ=(1+ω)λ, where ρ is rest energy density, ω a positive constant and λ the string tension density and expansion θ is proportional to eigen value σ ₁¹ of the shear tensor σ _j ⁱ . The behaviour of the models from physical and geometrical aspects in presence and absence of magnetic field is discussed.      

Uniform anisotropic cosmological model with string source

By adopting the comoving coordinate system, the axially symmetric models with string dust cloud source are obtained. Some of these models are singular free even at an initial epoch, where the geometric as well as thep-strings become singular.     

Plane symmetric cosmological models with perfect fluid and dark energy

We consider a self-consistent system of Plane symmetric cosmology and binary mixture of perfect fluid and dark energy. The perfect fluid is taken to be one obeying the usual equation of state p=γρ with γ∈[0,1]. The dark energy is considered to be either the quintessence or Chaplygin gas. Exact solutions to the corresponding Einstein’s field equations are obtained as a quadrature. The cases of Zeldovich Universe, Dust Universe and Radiation Universe and models with power-law and exponential expansion have discussed in detail. For large t, the models tend to be isotropic.

The perfect fluid is taken to be one obeying the usual equation of state p=γ ρ with γ∈[0,1]. The dark energy is considered to be either the quintessence or Chaplygin gas. Exact solutions to the corresponding Einstein equations are obtained as a quadrature. The cases of disordered radiation and models with power-law and exponential expansion have discussed in detail. For large t, the models tend to be isotropic.     

Bianchi type – IX string cosmological models with bulk viscous fluid in general relativity

To get a determinate solution, a supplementary condition a=b ⁿ, between metric potentials, is used wherea and b are function of time alone. A particular solution for n=0 is also discussed. The behaviour of the model in presence and absence of bulk viscosity, is discussed. The physical and implications of the model is also discussed. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

A new class of Inhomogeneous string cosmological models in general relativity

A new class of solutions of Einstein field equations has been investigated for inhomogeneous cylindrically symmetric space-time with string source. To get the deterministic solution, it has been assumed that the expansion (θ) in the model is proportional to the eigen value σ ¹  ₁ of the shear tensor σ ⁱ    _j . Certain physical and geometric properties of the models are also discussed.     

Five dimensional string cosmological models in a scalar-tensor theory of gravitation

Five dimensional Kaluza-Klein space-time is considered in the presence of cosmic string source in the frame work of scalar-tensor theory of gravitation proposed by Saez and Ballester (Phys. Lett. A 113, 467 (1985)). Exact cosmological models, which represent Nambu, Takabayasi and Reddy strings are presented. Some physical and kinematical properties of the models are also discussed.     

Dark energy constraints on masses and sizes of large scale cosmic structures

The requirement that their gravitational binding self-energy density must at least equal the background repulsive dark energy density for large scale cosmic structures implies a mass-radius relation of \({M} / {R^{2}} \approx 1~\mbox{g}/{\mbox{cm}^{2}}\), as pointed out earlier. This relation seems to hold true for primeval galaxies as well as those at present epoch. This could set constraints on the nature and evolution of dark energy. Besides, we also set constraints on the size of galaxy clusters and superclusters due to the repulsive cosmological dark energy. This could indicate as to why large scale cosmic structures much larger than ～200 Mpc are not seen.
