Bubble nucleation rate in fourth-order gravity.
We calculate the bubble nucleation rate in a fourth-order gravity theory whose action contains an R term, under the thin-wall approximation, by two different methods. First the bounce solution is found for the Euclidean version of the original action. Next, we use a conformal transformation to transform the theory into general relativity with an additional scalar field and then proceed to find ...
متن کاملFourth Order Gravity: Equations, History, and Applications to Cosmology *
The field equations following from a Lagrangian L(R) will be deduced and solved for special cases. If L is a non-linear function of the curvature scalar, then these equations are of fourth order in the metric. In the introduction we present the history of these equations beginning with the paper of H. Weyl from 1918, who first discussed them as alternative to Einstein’s theory. In the third par...

متن کاملSome experimental constraints for spectral parameters used in the Warner and McIntyre gravity wave parameterization scheme
In order to incorporate the effect of gravity waves (GWs) on the atmospheric circulation most global circulation models (GCMs) employ gravity wave parameterization schemes. To date, GW parameterization schemes in GCMs are used without experimental validation of the set of global parameters assumed for the GW launch spectrum. This paper focuses on the Warner and McIntyre GW parameterization sche...
متن کاملThe Newtonian limit of fourth - order gravity Hans - Jürgen
The weak-field slow-motion limit of fourth-order gravity will be discussed. Let us consider the gravitational theory defined by the Lagrangian Lg = (8πG) −1 ( R/2 + (αRijR ij + βR)l ) . (1) G is Newton’s constant, l a coupling length and α and β numerical parameters. Rij and R are the Ricci tensor and its trace. Introducing the matter Lagrangian Lm and varying Lg + Lm one obtains the field equa...
