Abstract

We present field equations corresponding to gravitational waves and their solutions of

Horndeski theory with an arbitrary potential in an appropriate gauge choice in the linearized

order. These solutions will help us to derive the effects of the arbitrary potential term on

gravitational waves in this order. The arbitrary potential plays the role of a mass of the scalar

field for this theory. We will compare the obtained solutions with the corresponding solutions

of General Relativity, and various alternative gravity theories.
