Abstract
We present Jordan-Brans-Dicke and general scalar-tensor gravitational theory in extra dimensions in an asymptotically flat or anti de Sitter spacetime. We consider a special gravitating, boson field configuration, a -star, in 3, 4, 5 and 6 dimensions, within the framework of the above gravitational theory and find that the parameters of the stable stars are a few per cent different from the case of General Relativity.
