Primes

• Mach's Principle
  • Brans-Dicke theory

    This sourceScalar-tensor theory of gravitation explicitly designed to implement Mach's principle more fully than general relativity; introduces scalar field φ that mediates inertial content; Brans-Dicke parameter ω controls the degree of Machian character. Observationally constrained to ω ≫ 40,000.
