On the Theory of Gravitation Part 5: Interrelation of Mass and Gravitation according to NTEP and SM

Alexander G. Kyriakos

Abstract


According to the relativistic gravitation theory of Einstein-Hilbert, a gravitational field is described by the components of the energy-momentum tensor, which in all approximate solutions are expressed in terms of the mass of bodies and fields. The present article examines two hypotheses about the origin of mass as origin of the gravity: 1) mass production theory developed in the framework of the nonlinear theory of elementary particles (NTEP), and 2) the Higgs mechanism of mass generation in the Standard Model (SM). The comparison of theories confirms that the results of NTEP are more consistent with the theory of gravity.
