| Abstract: | Conformal transformations in scalar-tensor gravitation theories are investigated in the present paper. It is demonstrated
that the field equations of these theories can be expressed in the Vaidya form. A scalar field equation is derived based on
the compatibility condition for the field equations. The conformal factor, dilaton, and restrictions on the metric are determined
for the diagonal metric of type I in the Bianchi classification.
