Abstract

We consider the late time behaviour of non-tilted perfect fluid Bianchi VII0 models when the source is a radiation fluid, thereby completing the analysis of the Bianchi VII0 models initiated by Wainwright et al in a recent paper. The models exhibit the phenomena of asymptotic self-similarity breaking and Weyl-curvature dominance at late times. The late time dynamics of the VII0 perfect fluid models, and in particular that of the radiation fluid, is a prime example of the complexity inherent in the field equations of general relativity.
