Bianchi Type-III Bulk Viscous String Cosmological Model in Self-Creation Theory of Gravitation

Abstract

Tilted Bianchi type-III cosmological model is investigated in the framework of second self-creation theory of gravitation proposed by Barber [1] in the presence of bulk viscous fluid containing one-dimensional cosmic strings. A determination solution of the field equations is obtained using some physically plausible conditions. Some physical and geometrical properties of the solutions are also discussed.
