Relativistic Theory of Gravity
Description:... The relativistic theory of gravity presented in this work is constructed as a field theory of the gravitational field within the framework of special relativity theory. The starting point is the hypothesis that a universal characteristic of matter -- the energy-momentum tensor -- serves as the source of gravity. The gravitational field is considered to be a universal physical field with spins 2 and 0, owing to the action of which the effective Riemannian space arises. This permits finding a gauge group and unambiguously constructing the Lagrangian density of the gravitational field. The set of equations of this theory is generally covariant and form-invariant with respect to the Lorentz group. Here the introduction of the graviton mass into the theory is necessarily required. The graviton mass substantially influences the Universe evolution and alters the nature of the gravitational collapse. In the work a further development is presented of the ideas of H. Poincare, H. Minkowski, A. Einstein,D. Hilbert, N. Rosen, V.A. Fock, S. Gupta, W. Thirring and S. Weinberg in the theory of relativity and gravity.
