Vacuum polarization of the quantized massive fields in Bianchi type I spacetime is investigated from the point of view of the adiabatic approximation and the Schwinger-DeWitt method. It is shown that both approaches give the same results…

Cosmic Microwave Background anomalies suggest that the Universe is slightly anisotropic, so a Cosmological Model that does not satisfy the Cosmological Principle is necessary. Anisotropic Bianchi models have been studied given that they…
