Abstract: (Elsevier)
Recently, for macroscopic matter, we proposed a translational gauge theory of gravitation [1]. We show here that it deviates from Einstein's theory in fifth order of the post-newtonian approximation. For a rotating “planet” we calculate explicitly this deviation. It shows up in a very small non-einsteinian contribution to the spin precession of a Dirac test particle moving in the planetary field.- GAUGE FIELD THEORY
