Rigorous results are proved on the asymptotics of homogeneous and isotropic spacetimes with a linear massive scalar field as source. Various generalizations are obtained for nonlinear massive scalar fields, $k$-essence models and $f(R)$ gravity. The effect of adding ordinary matter is discussed as is the case of nonlinear scalar fields whose potential has a degenerate zero.17 pages, additional referencesGeneral Relativity and Quantum CosmologyLate-time oscillatory behaviour for self-gravitating scalar fieldstext
