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.

Early viscous universe with variable gravitational and cosmological ‘constants’
Einstein's field equations with variable gravitational and cosmological 'constants' are considered in the presence of bulk viscosity for a spatially flat homogeneous and isotropic universe. Solutions are obtained by using a 'gamma-law' equation of state p = (? ? 1)?, where the adiabatic parameter ? varies continuously as the universe expands. A unified description of the early evolution of universe is presented with a number of possible assumptions on the bulk viscous term and gravitational constant in which an inflationary phase is followed by radiation-dominated phase. We investigate the cosmological model with constant and time-dependent bulk viscosity (proportional to power function of energy density and to Hubble parameter) along with constant and variable gravitational constant. The effect of viscosity is shown to affect the past and future of the universe. In all cases, the cosmological constant ? is found to be positive and a decreasing function of time, which supports the results obtained from recent supernovae Ia observations. The possibility that the present acceleration of the universe is driven by a kind of viscous fluid is explained. At the background level this model is similar to the generalized Chaplygin gas model. The physical and geometrical significance of the early cosmological models has also been discussed.

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.

STRING COSMOLOGY IN ANISOTROPIC BIANCHI-II SPACETIME
The present study deals with a spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi-II cosmological model representing massive strings. The energy–momentum tensor, as formulated by Letelier,10 has been used to construct a massive string cosmological model for which the expansion scalar is proportional to one of the components of shear tensor. The Einstein's field equations have been solved by applying a variation law for generalized Hubble's parameter that yields a constant value of deceleration parameter in Bianchi-II spacetime. A comparative study of accelerating and decelerating modes of the evolution of universe has been carried out in the presence of string scenario. The study reveals that massive strings dominate the early Universe. The strings eventually disappear from the Universe for sufficiently large times, which is in agreement with the current astronomical observations.

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.

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.

Intermediate Mass Fragment Production In Symmetric Collisions
We present a complete systematic theoretical study of multifragmentation and its associated phenomena in heavy ion collisions. This study is performed within an Isospin dependent Quantum Molecular Dynamical Model (IQMD) and using Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) algorithm. Simulations are carried out to study the different parameters like time evolution of multiplicity, mass distribution, impact parameter dependence and IMF's production dependence of projectile & target mass. The rise and fall in multiplicity of IMF's is observed. Results are compared with experimental data of ALADIN and are found to be in close agreement.

Elliptical flow and isospin effects in heavy-ion collisions at intermediate energies
The elliptical flow of fragments is studied for different systems at incident energies between 50 and 1000 MeV/nucleon using Isospin-dependent Quantum Molecular Dynamics (IQMD) Model. Our findings reveal that elliptical flow shows a transition from positive (in-plane) to negative (out-of-plane) value in the mid-rapidity region at certain incident energy, known as transition energy. This transition energy is found to depend on the model ingredients, size of the fragments, composite mass of the reacting system as well as on the impact parameter of the reaction. A reasonable agreement is observed for the excitation function of elliptical flow between the data and our calculations. Interestingly, the transition energy is found to exhibit a power law mass dependence.

Role of Momentum Dependent Interactions in Nuclear Stopping
In the present analysis, thousand of events were simulated for the neutron rich reaction of 54Xe131 + 54Xe131, at different impact parameters using hard (HMD) and soft (SMD) momentum dependent equation of state. one can clearly see more stopping in the presence of HMD. Production of LCP's and free particles follows the same trend as stopping parameter R. This simply implies that the fragment production can act as a global indicator for the nuclear stopping.

Boson stars in a theory of complex scalar fields coupled to the U(1) gauge field and gravity
We study boson shells and boson stars in a theory of a complex scalar field coupled to the gauge field and Einstein gravity with the potential . This could be considered either as a theory of a massive complex scalar field coupled to an electromagnetic field and gravity in a conical potential, or as a theory in the presence of a potential that is an overlap of a parabolic and conical potential. Our theory has a positive cosmological constant . Boson stars are found to come in two types, having either ball-like or shell-like charge density. We studied the properties of these solutions and also determined their domains of existence for some specific values of the parameters of the theory. Similar solutions have also been obtained by Kleihaus, Kunz, Laemmerzahl and List, in a V-shaped scalar potential.
