New inhomogeneous universes in scalar-tensor and f(R) gravity

Abstract

A new family of spherically symmetric inhomogeneous solutions of Brans-Dicke gravity is generated using the Fonarev solution of general relativity as a seed and a map from the Einstein to the Jordan conformal frame. The Brans-Dicke scalar field self-interacts with a power-law or inverse power-law potential in the Jordan frame. This 4-parameter family of geometries, which is dynamical and asymptotically Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker, contains as special cases two previously known classes of solutions and solves also the field equations of $f(R)=R^n$ gravity
