Statefinder diagnostic for variable modified Chaplygin gas in LRS Bianchi type I universe (Q447513): Difference between revisions

Summary: The locally rotationally symmetric (LRS) Bianchi type I cosmological model with variable modified Chaplygin gas having the equation of state \(p = A\rho - B/\rho^{\alpha}\), where \(0 \leq \alpha \leq 1, A\) is a positive constant, and \(B\) is a positive function of the average-scale factor \(a(t)\) of the universe (i.e., \(B = B(a))\) has been studied. It is shown that the equation of state of the variable modified Chaplygin gas interpolates from radiation-dominated era to quintessence-dominated era. The statefinder diagnostic pair (i.e., \(\{r, s\}\) parameter) is adopted to characterize different phases of the universe.
