One theory of this phenomenon replaces a constant with a variable scalar field, the Brans-Dicke model.
One theory of this phenomenon replaces a constant with a variable scalar field, the Brans-Dicke model. The balance between outward radiation and this phenomenon acting inwardly on a body is known as the Eddington luminosity, and the bending of light due to this phenomenon is known as its namesake lensing. This force, which Einstein visualized as the curvature of spacetime in his field equations, is proportional to the inverse square of radius and the product of two masses according to a universal law named for Newton. For 10 points, name this weakest of the fundamental forces that causes objects to accelerate on Earth at 9.8 meters per second squared.
