Scalar fields and gravity

In this thesis we discuss scalar field theories, and their applications to gravity. We provide a summary of why there is interest in modifying Einstein’s General Relativity, and discuss why scalar fields make a good candidate for a modification to make. We demonstrate their effects on the dynamics o...
