Scalar-Tensor Theory and Gravitational Waves
Abstract
An analysis of general scalar-tensor gravitation theory, containing two arbitrary functions of the scalar field, is presented. The weak-field limit is considered in detail, and predictions for the classical tests of gravitation theory are derived. A definite relationship between the light propagation and perihelion shift effects is found to hold under very general conditions. The theory of the detection of gravitational waves is also investigated, and the observable differences between the scalar and tensor components are indicated. Finally, the relationship between the properties of the source and its radiation is considered in the weak-source limit, and expressions for the rate of energy loss are derived. It is shown that the existing observational data are consistent with the possibility that the scalar field represents a major component of gravitational radiation from astronomical sources.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
