Bianchi Type-V Dark Energy Model in a Scalar-Tensor Theory of Gravitation

A spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi type-V universe with variable equation of state (EoS) parameter and constant deceleration parameter is obtained in a scalar-tensor theory of gravitation proposed by Saez and Ballester (Phys. Lett. A 113:467, 1986). The physical and kinematical properties of the universe have been discussed.
