Theory Of Gravity

Models of static spherically-symmetric stellar configurations are discussed within the framework of the Bimetric scalar-tensor theory of gravity. The latter, in addition to the metric tensor and the scalar field, contains a background metric tensor as an absolute variable of the theory. The simplest variant of the theory with a constant coupling parameter and with a zero cosmological function is considered. The analysis includes both the white dwarfs and neutron stars. It is shown that, depending on the value of the theory parameter, the corresponding masses can be notably larger than those in general relativity.

Theory Of Gravity

It has been shown earlier that Noether symmetry does not admit a form of corresponding to an action in which is coupled to scalar-tensor theory of gravity or even for pure theory of gravity taking anisotropic model into account. Here, we prove that theory of gravity does not admit Noether symmetry even if it is coupled to tachyonic field and considering a gauge in addition. To handle such a theory, a general conserved current has been constructed under a condition which decouples higher-order curvature part from the field part. This condition, in principle, solves for the scale-factor independently. Thus, cosmological evolution remains independent of the form of the chosen field, whether it is a scalar or a tachyon.

Theory Of Gravity

We investigate the weak-field limit of scalar-tensor theory of gravity and show that results are directly depending on the coupling and self-interaction potential of the scalar field. In particular, corrections are derived for the Newtonian potential. We discuss astrophysical applications of the results, in particular the flat rotation curves of spiral galaxies.
