arXiv:1105.3893 · doi:10.1140/epjp/i2011-11080-2

Abstract

We have investigated the Brans-Dicke Chameleon theory of gravity and obtained exact solutions of the scale factor , scalar field , an arbitrary function which interact with the matter Lagrangian in the action of the Brans-Dicke Chameleon theory and potential for different epochs of the cosmic evolution. We plot the functions , , and for different values of the Brans-Dicke parameter. In our models, there is no accelerating solution, only decelerating one with . The physical cosmological distances have been investigated carefully. Further the statefinder parameters pair and deceleration parameter are discussed.
