Three parameter metrics in the presence of a scalar field in four and higher dimensions

We investigate a class of three parameter metrics that contain both the $\gamma$-metric and Janis-Newman-Winicour (JNW) metric at special values of the parameters. To see the effect of the scalar field we derive some properties of this class of metrics such as curvature invariants, the effective potential, and epicyclic frequencies. We also introduce the five and higher dimensional forms of the class of metrics in the presence of a scalar field.
