Locally Rotationally Symmetric Bianchi Type $I$ Cosmology in $f(R,T)$ Gravity (1507.08175v1)

Abstract: This manuscript is devoted to investigate Bianchi Type $I$ universe in the context of $f(R,T)$ gravity. For this purpose, we explore the exact solutions of locally rotationally symmetric Bianchi type $I$ spacetime. The modified field equations are solved by assuming expansion scalar $\theta$ proportional to shear scalar $\sigma$ which gives $A=B^n$, where $A,\,B$ are the metric coefficients and $n$ is an arbitrary constant. In particular, three solutions have been found and physical quantities are calculated in each case.
