Nonlinear, noniterative treatment of EFT-motivated gravity
Nonlinear, noniterative treatment of EFT-motivated gravity
We study a higher derivative extension to General Relativity and present a fully nonlinear/nonperturbative treatment to construct initial data and study its dynamical behavior in spherical symmetry when coupled to a massless scalar field. For initial data, we compare the obtained solutions with those from alternative treatments that rely on …
