In this framework the form of the new agegraphic dark energy density takes as pq = 3n^2Ф(t)η^-2, where η is the conformal age of the universe and Ф(t) is the Brans-Dicke scalar field representing the inverse of the time-variable Newton's constant. We derive the equation of state of the new agegraphic dark energy and the deceleration parameter of the universe in the Brans-Dicke theory. It is very interesting to find that in the Brans-Dicke theory the agegraphic dark energy realizes quintom-like behavior, i.e., its equation of state crosses the phantom divide ω= -1 during the evolution. We also compare the situation of the agegraphic dark energy model in the Brans-Dicke theory with that in the Einstein's theory. In addition, we discuss the new agegraphic dark energy model with interaction in the framework of the Brans-Dicke theory.展开更多

文摘In this paper, we investigate the new agegraphic dark energy model in the framework of Brans-Dicke theory, which is a natural extension of the Einstein's general relativity. In this framework the form of the new agegraphic dark energy density takes as pq = 3n^2Ф(t)η^-2, where η is the conformal age of the universe and Ф(t) is the Brans-Dicke scalar field representing the inverse of the time-variable Newton's constant. We derive the equation of state of the new agegraphic dark energy and the deceleration parameter of the universe in the Brans-Dicke theory. It is very interesting to find that in the Brans-Dicke theory the agegraphic dark energy realizes quintom-like behavior, i.e., its equation of state crosses the phantom divide ω= -1 during the evolution. We also compare the situation of the agegraphic dark energy model in the Brans-Dicke theory with that in the Einstein's theory. In addition, we discuss the new agegraphic dark energy model with interaction in the framework of the Brans-Dicke theory.
