ON THE MOTION OF A TEST PARTICLE AROUND A GLOBAL MONOPOLE IN A MODIFIED GRAVITY

In this paper we suggest an approach to analyze the motion of a test particle in the spacetime of a global monopole within a f(R)-like modified gravity. The field equations are written in a simplified form in terms of [Formula: see text]. Since we are dealing with a spherically symmetric metric, we express F(R) as a function of the radial coordinate only, e.g., [Formula: see text]. So, the choice of a specific form for f(R) will be equivalent to adopt an Ansatz for [Formula: see text] . By choosing an explicit functional form for [Formula: see text], we obtain the weak field solutions for the metric tensor also compute the time-like geodesics and analyze the motion of a massive test particle. An interesting feature is an emerging attractive force exerted by the monopole on the particle.
