Conformal properties of charges in scalar–tensor gravities

Abstract

We study the behaviour under conformal transformations of energy and other charges in generic scalar–tensor models. This enables us to conclude that the ADM/AD masses are invariant under field redefinitions mixing metric and scalar despite the permitted slow asymptotic falloff of massless scalars.
