Static spherically symmetric solutions in higher derivative gravity

We consider the four-derivative modification to the Einstein-Hilbert action of general relativity, without a cosmological constant. Higher derivative terms are interesting because they make the theory renormalisable (but non-unitary) and because they appear generically in quantum gravity theories. W...
