An interacting scalar field and the recent cosmic acceleration

arXiv:gr-qc/0507115 · doi:10.1007/s10714-006-0296-z

Abstract

In this paper it is shown that the Brans - Dicke scalar field itself can serve the purpose of providing an early deceleration and a late time acceleration of the universe without any need of quintessence field if one considers an interaction, i.e, transfer of energy between the dark matter and the Brans - Dicke scalar field.
