On the Weak Field Approximation of Brans-Dicke Theory of Gravity
نویسندگان
چکیده
It is shown that in the weak field approximation solutions of Brans-Dicke equations are simply related to the solutions General Relativity equations for the same matter distribution. A simple method is developed which permits to obtain Brans-Dicke solutions from Einstein solutions when both theories are considered in their linearized forms. To illustrate the method some examples found in the literature are discussed. e-mail: [email protected]

Global Monopoles in Brans-Dicke Theory of Gravity
The gravitational field of a global monopole in the context of Brans-Dicke theory of gravity is investigated. The space-time and the scalar field generated by the monopole are obtained by solving the field equations in the weak field approximation. A comparison is made with the corresponding results predicted by General Relativity. Electronic address: [email protected] 1 Monopoles resulting ...
متن کاملکیهانشناسی کلاسیکی برانز- دیکی در چارچوب اینشتین و تغییر نشان متریک
Pauli (or Einstein) frame is used to study the Brans-Dicke gravity theory, minimally coupled with dilatonic Brans-Dicke scalar field, whose solutions involve degenerate metrics. Some of these solutions exhibit transitions from an Euclidean domain to a Lorentzian space-time corresponding to a spatially flat Robertson-Walker cosmology.
متن کاملCharged black holes in string-inspired gravity II. Mass inflation and dependence on parameters and potentials
We investigate the relation between the existence of mass inflation and model parameters of string-inspired gravity models. In order to cover various models, we investigate a Brans-Dicke theory that is coupled to a U(1) gauge field. By tuning a model parameter that decides the coupling between the Brans-Dicke field and the electromagnetic field, we can make both of models such that the Brans-Di...
متن کاملDynamics of false vacuum bubbles in Brans-Dicke theory
We study the dynamics of false vacuum bubbles in the Brans-Dicke theory of gravity by using the thin shell or thin wall approximation. We consider a false vacuum bubble that has a different value for the Brans-Dicke field between the inside false vacuum region and the outside true vacuum region. Within a certain limit of field values, the difference of field values makes the effective tension o...
متن کاملFour-dimensional interior solutions from Jordan-Brans-Dicke Theory of Gravity.
We study spherically symmetric solutions to the Jordan-Brans-Dicke field equations under the assumption that the space-time may possess an arbitrary number of spatial dimensions. Assuming a perfect fluid with the equation of state p = ερ, we show that there are static interior nontrivial solutions in three dimensional Jordan-Brans-Dicke gravity theory.
