Abstract
We investigated the effects of a tachyonic field as a source of gravity in a Bianchi type-I metric. A tachyonic potential is constructed in the anisotropic metric and it is observed that a tachyonic field can be a possible candidate to drive the anisotropically expanding universe. The asymptotic nature of the potential is also discussed. © IOP Publishing Ltd.
