1205.3768 (D. Panigrahi et al.)

Spherically symmetric model with Chaplygin gas    [PDF]

D. Panigrahi, S. Chatterjee
The evolution of a universe modelled as a mixture of generalised Chaplygin gas and ordinary matter field is studied for a Robertson Walker type of spacetime. This model could interpolate periods of a radiation dominated, matter dominated and a cosmological constant dominated universe. Depending on the arbitrary constants appearing in our theory the instant of flip changes. Interestingly we also get a bouncing model when the signature of one of the constants changes. The velocity of sound may become imaginary under certain situations pointing to a perturbative state and consequently the possibility of structure formation. We also discuss the whole situation in the backdrop of wellknown Raychaudhury equation and a comparison is made with the previous results. The work may be considered as a continuation of our earlier communication where we have studied a Tolman-Bondi type of spacetime with a generalised Chaplygin gas as our matter field.
