Abstract

Field equations in the Brans-Dicke scalar-tensor theory of gravitation are obtained for a static charged point mass with the aid of a spherically symmetric conformally flat metric. A closed-form exact solution of the field equations is presented, and may be considered as describing the field due to a charged mass point at the origin surrounded by a scalar-tensor field in a conformally flat space.
