چکیده
We study the properties of a future singularity encountered by a perfect fluid observer in tilting spatially homogeneous Bianchi cos-mologies. We derive the boost formulae for the Weyl tensor to establish that, for two observers that are asymptotically null with respect to each other, their respective Weyl parameters generally both tend to zero, constant, or infinity together. We examine three classes of typical examples and one exceptional class. Given the behaviour of the Weyl parameter, we can predict that the singularity encountered is a Weyl singularity or a kinematic singularity. The analysis suggests that the kinematic variables are also useful in indicating a singularity in these models.

A new class of exact solutions of Einstein’s field equations with a perfect fluid source, variable gravitational coupling G and cosmological term Λ for FRW spacetime is obtained by considering variable deceleration parameter models for the universe. The nature of the variables G(t), Λ(t) and the energy density ρ(t) have been examined for three cases : (i) exponential (ii) polynomial and (iii) s...

A tachyon field having a negative squared-masses −mt can be described in terms of infinitely degenerate massless fields. The degeneracy can be described as a gauge freedom. This picture for tachyons does not contradict causality. It is seen that the tachyons can be quenched in the Lorentz gauge, and the effects can be represented by the gauge factor. The accelerated expansion of the Universe an...

The performance of optical clocks has strongly progressed in recent years, and accuracies and instabilities of 1 part in 10 18 are expected in the near future. The operation of optical clocks in space provides new scientific and technological opportunities. In particular, an earth-orbiting satellite containing an ensemble of optical clocks would allow a precision measurement of the gravitationa...

Considering the quintom model with arbitrary potential, it is shown that there always exists a solution which evolves from ω > −1 region to ω < −1 region. The problem is restricted to the slowly varying potentials, i.e. the slow-roll approximation. The perturbative solutions of the fields are also obtained.
