LRS Bianchi Type-I Cosmological Model in Modified f(R, T)

Abstract

In this paper, we have studied LRS Bianchi type-I cosmological model for  f(R, T) gravity. In order to present simplest mode of evolution, here we discussed in the background of a generic viable non-minimally coupled f(R, T) = α₁R^mTⁿ + α₂T(1 + α₃T^pR^q) gravity model. Here we used the case f(R, T) = R + α₂T. The exact solution of the field equations in respect of LRS Bianchi type-I space time filled with perfect fluid in frame work of f(R, T) gravity are derived. The physical and kinematical behaviors of the model are also studied.
