Dynamics of an Anisotropic Universe in f(R,T)f(R,T) Theory

Dynamics of an anisotropic universe is studied in $f(R,T)$ gravity using a rescaled functional $f(R,T)$. Three models have been constructed assuming a power law expansion of the universe. Physical features of the models are discussed. The model parameters are constrained from a dimensional analysis. It is found from the work that, the $BVI_h$ model in the modified gravity can favour quintessence and phantom phase.Comment: 16 pages, 4 figure

Axially magnetized Dark Energy cosmological model

We investigate the behaviour of the skewness parameters for an anisotropic universe in the framework of General Relativity. Non interacting dark energy is considered in presence of electromagnetic field. A time varying deceleration parameter simulated by a hybrid scale factor is considered. The dynamics of the universe is investigated in presence and absence of magnetic field. The equation of state parameter of dark energy evolves within the range predicted by the observations. Magnetic field is observed to have a substantial effect on the cosmic dynamics and the skewness parameters. The models discussed here end in a big rip and become isotropic at finite time.Comment: 9 pages, 13 figures, Version accepted for publication in Mod. Phys. Lett.
