  • We consider slow-roll inflation in the context of a modified Brans-Dicke dilaton gravity. From a two self-interacting potentials $V(ϕ)$, we reproduce a Starobinsky-like potential and, commonly in syperstring models, an exponential tail potential $V(ϕ)\sim(1-e^{α_0ϕ})$, with $α_0$ being a constant coefficient related to the Brans-Dicke parameter $ω$. Using the observational bounds on the spectral index $n_s$ and tensor-to-scalar ratio $r$ imposed by Planck-CMB baseline data and the BICEP2/Keck collaboration with combination with Planck 2018 and the Baryonic Acoustic Oscillations(BAO), we obtain for both models a good agreement with current observations with $n_s = 0.960 - 0.972$ and $r<0.02$. In addition, the resulting large values of $ω$ suggests a possible linkage of the inflationary regime and today's solar system bounds.
