This note revisits and corrects a previous analysis on gravitational radiation in compact binary systems within the framework of Brans-Dicke-f(R) theories-models featuring both massless and effectively massive scalar fields. We correct the…
We reconsider constraints on Brans-Dicke theories arising from the requirement of successful Big Bang Nucleosynthesis. Such constraints typically arise by imposing that the universe be radiation-dominated at early times, and therefore…
We calculate how strongly one can constrain the alternative theories of gravity with deci-Hz gravitational wave interferometers such as DECIGO and BBO. Here we discuss Brans-Dicke theory and massive graviton theories as typical examples. We…
It is very much intriguing if the Planck scale $M_{\rm{Pl}}$ is not a fundamental parameter. The Brans-Dicke gravity is nothing but the theory where the Planck scale $M_{\rm{Pl}}$ is indeed an illusional parameter. The theory predicts a…
We study q-stars in Brans-Dicke gravitational theory. We find that when the Brans-Dicke constant, $\omega_{\textrm{BD}}$, tends to infinity, the results of General Relativity are reproduced. For other values of $\omega_{\textrm{BD}}$, the…
We present a full-fledged analysis of Brans-Dicke cosmology with a cosmological constant and cold dark matter (BD-$\Lambda$CDM for short). We extend the scenarios where the current cosmological value of the BD-field is restricted by the…
We analyze Brans-Dicke gravity with a cosmological constant, $\Lambda$, and cold dark matter (BD-$\Lambda$CDM for short) in the light of the latest cosmological observations on distant supernovae, Hubble rate measurements at different…
By assuming the spatially flat~FLRW line-element and employing the Hamiltonian formalism, a noncommutative (NC) setting of the Brans-Dicke (BD) theory is introduced. We investigate gravity-driven acceleration and kinetic inflation in this…
Using the covariant formalism developed in a companion paper (paper I), we derive observational constraint on the Brans-Dicke model in a flat FLRW universe with cosmological constant and cold dark matter. The CMB observations we use include…
In Brans-Dicke theory a non-linear self interaction of a scalar field allows a possibility of realizing the late-time cosmic acceleration, while recovering the General Relativistic behavior at early cosmological epochs. We extend this to…
In this work we focus on a novel completion of the well-known Brans-Dicke theory that introduces an interaction between the dark energy and dark matter sectors, known as complete Brans-Dicke (CBD) theory. We obtain viable cosmological…
We consider the ADM formalism of the Brans-Dicke theory and propose an anisotropic extension of the theory by introducing five free parameters. We find that the resulting theory reveals many interesting aspects which are not present in the…
The Brans-Dicke theory of gravity is one of the oldest ideas to extend general relativity by introducing a non-minimal coupling between the scalar field and gravity. The Solar System tests put tight constraints on the theory. In order to…
This paper investigates the generation and properties of gravitational radiation within the framework of Generalized Brans-Dicke (GBD) theory, with a specific emphasis on its manifestation in compact binary systems. The primary focus of…
In the context of Brans-Dicke scalar tensor theory of gravitation, the cosmological Friedmann equation which relates the expansion rate $H$ of the universe to the various fractions of energy density is analyzed rigorously. It is shown that…
The basic cosmological predictions of a `polarizable-vacuum' theory of gravity due to Dicke, predating the scalar-tensor theory, are investigated and tested for their compliance with current observations. A Friedmann-like equation is…
The expansion history of the Universe reconstructed from a combination of recent data indicates a preference for a changing Dark Energy (DE) density. Moreover, the DE density appears to be increasing with cosmic time, with its equation of…
Recently proposed Born-Infeld (BI) theories of gravity assume a constant BI parameter ($\kappa$). However, no clear consensus exists on the sign and value of $\kappa$. Recalling the Brans-Dicke (BD) approach, where a scalar field was used…
The measurement of the size of gravitationally bounded structures is an important test of gravity theories. For a given radius different theories can in fact predict a different gravitational stability mass (GSM) necessary to ensure the…
In a Brans-Dicke (BD) cosmological model, the energy density associated with some scalar field decreases as $\displaystyle a^{{-2}(\frac{\omega_{o}+ {\frac12}%}{\omega_{o}+1})} $ with the scale factor $a(t)$ of the Universe, giving a matter…
