- Title
Rest Energy of Classical Self Fields of Point Gravitating Sources.
- Authors

- Abstract
A variant of Brans-Dicke theory is discussed in which the singularities of electric, scalar and metric sector of classical self fields of a point gravitating source are in Jordan frame suppressed and their energy — momentum tensor is integrable. The total energy of the classical electron Coulomb field is finite and in accordance with special relativistic expression m0c². The same may be said with respect to total rest energy of the quasiCoulomb field, i.e. the scalar self-field of the source in the case of electron and in the case of a source with zero electric charge. Although (pseudo-)Einstein equations in (pseudo-)Pauli frame are modified, all experimental predictions concerning gravitational effects of macroscopic (celestial) bodies are in accordance with that of GRT.
