arXiv:1201.0271 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.83.104019

Abstract

The post Newtonian parameter is considered in the Chameleon-Brans-Dicke frame. In the first step, the general form of this parameter and also effective gravitational constant is obtained. An arbitrary function for , which indicates the coupling between matter and scalar field, is introduced to investigate validity of solar system constraint. It is shown that Chameleon-Brans-Dicke model can satisfy the solar system constraint and gives us an parameter of order , which is in comparable to the constraint which has been indicated in {\cite{17-a}}.
