In this article, we report the results of comparing the effect of using trace of stress-energy tensor versus real-valued scalar field in Nonminimal Derivative Coupling gravitation model, respectively denoted as NMDC-T and NMDC-phi. We employ the model into an incompressible star and see the effect of both models NMDC-T and NMDC-phi on the compactness and mass-radius relation. We find that coupling parameters of NMDC-T is less sensitive than NMDC-phi.
Prasetyo et al. (Fri,) studied this question.
