Can Gravity Be Considered a Force?

Authors: Scott Wilson

We present Einstein’s Field Equation with an explicit gravitational stress-energyterm, in a flat space-time background. This treatment explicitly treats gravity asa force. Solutions appear easier to calculate, since in regions where the gravitationalstress-energy tensor is zero the regular matter appears to be linearly relatedto the gravitational tensor potential. It has the added benefit that the flat spacetimebackground allows the theory to be more easily integrated with other theories.As an application, we calculate a relation for the gravitational stress-energy in theSchwarzschild metric.
