Anisotropic dark energy models with constant deceleration parameter
We consider a spatially homogeneous and totally anisotropic Bianchi-I space-time with perfect fluid (dark matter and standard visible matter) and anisotropic dark energy, which has dynamical energy density. The two sources are assumed to interact minimally and therefore their energy momentum tensors are conserved separately. Using suitable physical assumptions, the field equations are solved exactly. Various dark energy models are studied and it is found that quintessence model is suitable for describing the present evolution of the universe. The geometrical and kinematical features of the models and the behavior of the anisotropy of the dark energy, are examined in detail.

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

SOME BIANCHI TYPE-V MODELS OF ACCELERATING UNIVERSE WITH DARK ENERGY
The paper deals with a spatially homogeneous and anisotropic universe filled with perfect fluid and dark energy components. The two sources are assumed to interact minimally together with a special law of variation for the average Hubble's parameter in order to solve the Einstein's field equations. The law yields two explicit forms of the scale factor governing the Bianchi-V spacetime and constant values of deceleration parameter. The role of dark energy with variable equation of state parameter has been studied in detail in the evolution of Bianchi-V universe. It has been found that dark energy dominates the universe at the present epoch, which is consistent with the observations. The universe achieves flatness after the dominance of dark energy. The physical behavior of the universe has been discussed in detail.

Anisotropic Bianchi type-I models with constant deceleration parameter in general relativity
Abstract
A special law of variation for Hubble’s parameter is presented in a spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi type-I space-time that yields a constant value of deceleration parameter. Using the law of variation for Hubble’s parameter, exact solutions of Einstein’s field equations are obtained for Bianchi-I space-time filled with perfect fluid in two different cases where the universe exhibits power-law and exponential expansion. 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 models is carried out.

Bianchi type-II space-times with constant deceleration parameter in self creation cosmology
Abstract
The properties of locally rotationally symmetric Bianchi type-II perfect fluid space-times are analyzed in Barber’s second self-creation theory by using a special law of variation for Hubble’s parameter that yields a constant value of deceleration parameter. By assuming the equation of state p=γρ, many new solutions are obtained for different era—Zel’dovich, radiation, vacuum and vacuum energy dominated. The solutions with power-law and exponential expansion are discussed. A detailed study of geometrical and physical parameters is carried out. The nature of singularity is also clarified in each case.

Viscous fluid cosmology with a cosmological constant
Exact solutions of the field equations for a Bianchi type-I space-time, filled with a viscous fluid and cosmological constant, are obtained. We utilize the constancy of deceleration parameter to get singular and non-singular solutions. We investigate a number of solutions with constant and time-varying cosmological constant together with a linear relation between shear viscosity and expansion scalar. Due to dissipative processes, the mean anisotropy and shear of the model tend to zero at a faster rate.

Influence of density dependence of symmetry energy on fragmentation
The fragmentation of projectile and spectator is studied at the different incident energies using isospin dependent QMD model with reduced isospin dependent cross-section. Different systems have been used for the analysis of fragment production(IMF). We have used enhanced constant isospin dependent cross-section to explain the experimental findings which is valid for soft equation of state. In addition to that we have tried to study the influence of density dependent symmetry energy on fragment production.

Cosmology with axionic-quintessence coupled with dark matter
We study the possibility of explaining the late time acceleration with an axion field which is coupled with the dark matter sector of the energy budget of the Universe. The axion field arises from the Ramond–Ramond sector of the Type-IIB string theory. We study the background evolution of the Universe as well as the growth of the matter perturbation in the linear regime. We subsequently use the observational data from Sn-Ia, BAO measurements, measurements of the Hubble parameter as well as the observational data for the growth of the matter perturbation to constrain our model. Our results show that coupled axion models are allowed to have larger deviation from the cosmological constant by the present observational data. Communicated by P R L V Moniz

Magnetically induced electronic ferroelectricity in half-doped manganites.
Using a joint approach of density functional theory and model calculations, we demonstrate that a prototypical charge ordered half-doped manganite La1/2Ca1/2MnO3 is multiferroic. The combination of a peculiar charge-orbital ordering and a tendency to form spin dimers breaks the inversion symmetry and leads to a ferroelectric ground state with a polarization up to several microC/cm2. The presence of improper ferroelectricity does not depend on the hotly debated structural details of this material: in the Zener-polaron structure we find a similar ferroelectric response with a large polarization of purely magnetic origin.

Exact Superpotentials from Matrix Models
Dijkgraaf and Vafa (DV) have conjectured that the exact superpotential for a large class of = 1 SUSY gauge theories can be extracted from the planar limit of a certain holomorphic matrix integral. We test their proposal against existing knowledge for a family of deformations of = 4 SUSY Yang-Mills theory involving an arbitrary polynomial superpotential for one of the three adjoint chiral superfields. Specifically, we compare the DV prediction for these models with earlier results based on the connection between SUSY gauge theories and integrable systems. We find complete agreement between the two approaches. In particular we show how the DV proposal allows the extraction of the exact eigenvalues of the adjoint scalar in the confining vacuum and hence computes all related condensates of the finite-N gauge theory. We extend these results to include Leigh-Strassler deformations of the = 4 theory.

Inflationary generalized Chaplygin gas and dark energy in light of the Planck and BICEP2 experiments
In this work, we study an inflationary scenario in the presence of Generalized Chaplygin Gas (GCG). We show that in Einstein gravity, GCG is not a suitable candidate for inflation; but in a five dimensional brane world scenario, it can work as a viable inflationary model. We calculate the relevant quantities such as $n_{s}$, $r$ and $A_{s}$ related to the primordial scalar and tensor fluctuations, and using their recent bounds from Planck and BICEP2, we constrain the model parameters as well as the five-dimensional Planck mass. But as a slow-roll inflationary model with a power-law type scalar primordial power spectrum, GCG as an inflationary model can not resolve the tension between results from BICEP2 and Planck with a concordance $\Lambda$CDM Universe. We show that going beyond the concordance $\Lambda$CDM model and incorporating more general dark energy behaviour, this tension may be eased. We also obtain the constraints on the $n_{s}$ and $r$ and the GCG model parameters using Planck+WP+BICEP2 data considering the CPL dark energy behaviour.
