Gravitomagnetic time delay and the Lense-Thirring effect in Brans-Dicke theory of gravity

Abstract

We discuss the gravitomagnetic time delay and the Lense-Thirring effect in the context of Brans-Dicke theory of gravity. We compare the theoretical results obtained with those predicted by general relativity. We show that within the accuracy of experiments designed to measure these effects both theories predict essentially the same result.Comment: 10 pages Typeset using REVTE
