Black holes in scalar-tensor gravity.

Phys Rev Lett

SISSA-ISAS, Trieste, Italy.

Published: February 2012

Hawking has proven that black holes which are stationary as the end point of gravitational collapse in Brans-Dicke theory (without a potential) are no different than in general relativity. We extend this proof to the much more general class of scalar-tensor and f(R) gravity theories, without assuming any symmetries apart from stationarity.
