Abstract
We present approximate solutions for the Brans-Dicke field equations in vacuum, assuming spherical symmetry and static fields. Apart from the trivial solution φ=constant, there exist solutions with φ vanishing at r=0 and approaching a constant value as r→∞. Finally, we show that these solutions produce flat rotation curves in the region r sh r√ω/2r sh
