Quasilocal mass and multipole expansion in scalar-tensor gravity

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2019-10-16 v1

Abstract

A generalization of the Hawking-Hayward quasilocal mass to scalar-tensor gravity is compared, in vacuo and for asymptotically flat stationary geometries, with a recent multipole expansion of the gravitational field. The quasilocal mass seen at spatial infinity coincides with the monopole term, lending credibility to this construct.
