Schwarzschild and linear potentials in Mannheim's model of conformal gravity

Peter R. Phillips

We study the equations of conformal gravity, as given by Mannheim, in the weak field limit, so that a linear approximation is adequate. Specializing to static fields with spherical…

Mannheim's linear potential in conformal gravity

Peter R. Phillips

We study the equations of conformal gravity, as given by Mannheim, in the weak field limit, so that a linear approximation is adequate. Specializing to static fields with spherical…

Broken symmetry can yield a positive effective G in conformal gravity

Peter R. Phillips

We modify the action of Mannheim's conformally invariant model by changing the sign of two coefficients. This breaks conformal symmetry, but results in a cosmology that has a posit…

Attraction and Repulsion in Conformal Gravity

Peter R. Phillips

We use numerical integration to solve the field equations of conformal gravity, assuming a metric that is static and spherically symmetric. Our solution is an extension of that fou…

Connecting the very large and the very small: effective particle mass in curved-space cosmological models

Peter R. Phillips

We investigate the propagation of electromagnetic fields and potentials in the plasma of the early Universe, assuming a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker background with negative curvatur…

Is the Mass Scale for Elementary Particles Classically Determined?

Peter R. Phillips

We investigate whether a mass scale for elementary particles can be derived from interactions of particles with distant matter in the Universe, the mechanism of the interaction bei…
