Abstract

In this paper we discuss the law of variation of scale factor $a = (t^{k}e^{t})^{\frac{1}{n}}$ which yields a time-dependent deceleration parameter (DP) representing a new class of models that generate a transition of universe from the early decelerated phase to the recent accelerating phase. Exact solutions of Einstein’s modified field equations in Bianchi type-V space-time with perfect fluid and heat conduction are obtained within the framework of Sáez-Ballester scalar-tensor theory of gravitation and the model is found to be in good agreement with recent observations. We find, for n=3,k=1, the present value of DP in derived model as q 0=−0.67 which is very near to the observed value of DP at present epoch. We find that the time-dependent DP is sensible for the present day Universe and give an earmark description of evolution of universe. Some physical and geometric properties of the models are also discussed.
