Abstract
In this paper we present anisotropic, homogeneous two-fluid cosmological models in a Bianchi I space-time. These classes of cosmological models picture two different scenarios of cosmic history; viz., when the radiation and matter content of the universe are in interactive phase and another when the two are non-interacting. The universe is highly anisotropic in the initial stages, however, anisotropy tapers out to insignificance in due course of cosmic evolution. In every model the anisotropy of the space-time is determined by the density parameter Ω0 at the present epoch. For Ω0=1, the anisotropy is washed out before long. An interesting class of models, having an inflationary epoch in finite future, is discovered.
