✦ Synopsis

Schwinger's source theory is applied to the problem of gravitation and its quantization. It is shown that within the framework of a flat-space the source theory implementation leads to a violation of probability. To avoid the difficulty one must introduce a curved space-time hence the source concept may be said to necessitate the transition to a curvedspace theory of gravitation. It is further shown that the curved-space theory of gravitation implied by the source theory is not equivalent to the conventional Einstein theory. The source concept leads to a different theory where the gravitational field has a stressenergy tensor t$, which contributes to geometric curvatures.

A theory of gravitation is presented satisfying the covariance and equivalence principles. It makes use of a Riemannian metric tensor gpF , describing the true gravitational field, and a flat-space metric tensor yrv , describing the inertial forces. The field equations have a simple structure so tha

## Abstract We start from the assumption that the gravitational source strength of matter becomes weaker if the matter density is greater than a certain value and is equal to zero for matter densities greater than another value. We give a phenomenological description of this assumption. One consequ
