Abstract: (APS)
General covariance and maxium four-dimensional Yang-Mills gauge symmetry lead to these results: (1) Gravity is characterized by a dimensionless constant F∼10−19; (2) the Newtonian force is always attractive; (3) space-time has a torsion; (4) gravitational spin-force between two protons is about 1019 times stronger than the corresponding Newtonian force. A possible experimental test is discussed.- INVARIANCE: LORENTZ
