Abstract: (Elsevier)

We consider possible generalizations of phase coupling gravitation, a relativistic theory introduced to account for the astrophysical missing mass problem in the framework of departures from newtonian gravitation. We show that pure phase coupled gravitation cannot be gauged. However, the theory can be extended by modifying the interactions. It is then endowed with a continuous global symmetry which can be gauged.
