Abstract
Herein, the system of Einstein equations and the equation of the Freund – Nambu massless scalar field for static spherically symmetric and axially symmetric fields are considered. It is shown that this system of field equations decouples into gravitational and scalar subsystems. In the second post-Newtonian approximation, the solutions for spherically symmetric and slowly rotating sources are obtained. The application of the obtained solutions to astrophysical problems is discussed.
