摘要 (Abstract): 

       Massive Brans-Dicke theory is an extension of general relativity with a massive scalar field. In general relativity, there are two  gravitational wave polarizations. However, in massive Brans-Dicke theory, the scalar field  can induce two additional gravitational wave polarizations. In this talk, I will demonstrate the method to calculate the waveforms of gravitational wave polarizations emitted by a compact binary system in massive Brans-Dicke theory.
