Gauge freedom for Gravitational Wave problems in tensor-scalar theories of gravity
Abstract
Description
A specific choice of gauge is shown to imply a decoupling between the tensor and scalar components of Gravitational Radiation in the context of Brans-Dicke type theories of gravitation. The comparison of the predictions of these theories with those of General Relativity is thereby made straightforward.
