Averaging inhomogeneities in scalar-tensor cosmology

If you have a question about this talk, please contact David Seery.

The backreaction of inhomogeneities on the cosmic dynamics is studied in the context of scalar-tensor gravity. Due to terms of indefinite sign in the non-canonical effective energy tensor of the Brans-Dicke-like scalar field, extra contributions to the cosmic acceleration can arise. Brans-Dicke and metric f® gravity are presented as specific examples.
