摘要
本文考虑引力标量张量理论的双标量场扩展。我们的理论是基于度量张量gμν和两个标量场。我们保留了Brans-Dicke理论的想法,即引力耦合G是标量场φ动力学的有效现象。除此之外,我们把光速c提高到独立标量场的状态。在相空间中对系统的xμ和xμ进行了动力学分析,确定了稳定平衡点存在的条件。这些条件符合最近得到天体物理学和宇宙现象学支持的ansatz Ġ/G=3 * * /c的约束c3/G=常数。我们在FLRW宇宙学和我们称之为c-meleon的变色龙机制的背景下分析了这种可能性。我们得到了c-meleon场的具体解,包括(i) O 'Hanlon和Tupper-like解,(ii)尘埃加上变化的c(和G),以及(iii)真空能量加上变化的c(和G)。
Covarying-Bi-Scalar Theory: A model with covarying G and c and a natural screening mechanism
In this paper we consider a double-scalar-field extension to scalar–tensor theories of gravity. Our theory is based in the metric tensor and two scalar fields. We keep the idea in Brans–Dicke theory that the gravitational coupling is an effective phenomenon from the dynamics of a scalar field . In addition to that, we raise the speed of light to the status of an independent scalar field. The dynamical analysis of and is performed in the phase space and the conditions for the existence of stable equilibrium points are determined. These conditions accommodate the constraint in accordance with the ansatz that has recently received support from astrophysical and cosmological phenomenology. We analyze this possibility in the context of FLRW cosmology and a chameleon-like mechanism we dubbed -meleon. We obtain specific solutions for the -meleon field, including (i) an O’Hanlon and Tupper-like solution, (ii) dust-matter plus the varying (and ), and (iii) vacuum energy plus the varying (and ).
