A note on some static scalar-gravitational fields

Abstract

In this note extending the technique developed for static fields by De (1964) to the static plane-symmetric solution of Taub (1951) and the conformastat gravitational universe of Das (1971) solutions for coupled gravitational and zero-rest-mass scalar fields have been obtained. Furthermore, it is found that the singularities of these empty spaces cannot be removed by the introduction of zero-rest-mass scalar fields. © 1989 Kluwer Academic Publishers.
