LRS Bianchi type-I cosmological model in f (R, T) theory of gravity

Abstract

The exact solutions of the field equations in respect of LRS Bianchi type-I space time filled with perfect fluid in the framework of f(R, T) gravity (Harko et al., arXiv:1104.2669v2 [gr-qc], 2011) are derived. The physical behavior of the model is studied. In fact, the possibility of reconstruction of the LRS Bianchi type-I cosmology with an appropriate choice of a function f(T) has been proved in f(R, T) gravity. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.
