Abstract

The technique of phase plane analysis, which was used in a previous paper [4] to study the behaviour of a class of perfect-fluid anisotropic cosmological models, is applied to some simple anisotropic models that contain a uniform magnetic field. A formal correspondence is established between these magnetic models (of Bianchi type I) and certain perfect fluid models (of Bianchi type II), and new exact solutions are consequently discovered.
