Cosmic acceleration in non-canonical scalar field model - An interacting scenario

Understand

In this paper we have studied the dynamics of accelerating scenario within the framework of scalar field models possessing a non-canonical kinetic term.

• In this toy model, the scalar field is allowed to interact with the dark matter component through a source term.
• We have assumed a specific form for the coupling term and then have studied the dynamics of the scalar field having a constant equation of state parameter.
• We have also carried out the dynamical system study of such interacting non-canonical scalar field models for power law potentials for some physically relevant specific values of the model parameters.
