摘要：

The standard tenet that Brans-Dicke theory reduces to general relativity in the omega --> infinity limit has been shown to be false when the trace of the matter energy-momentum tensor vanishes. The issue is clarified in a new approach and the asymptotic behaviour of the Brans-Dicke scalar is rigorously derived. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
