Static, spherically symmetric scalar fields with a traceless energy-momentum tensor in general relativity

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. D; (United States)
A problem of zero-mass scalar fields coupled to the gravitational field in the static, spherically symmetric case, is completely solved for a traceless energy-momentum tensor. Among the solutions is one with a conformally flat and asymptotically flat metirc with total energy equal to the Schwarzschild mass.
