Abstract

The Brans-Dicke field equations for a perfect fluid distribution representing slowly rotating fluid spheres are investigated. Exact solutions are obtained for differential rotation and perfect dragging by imposing some physical restrictions on the matter rotation ω(r,t). The physical properties are discussed fork=±1.
