General Self-creation Cosmology Theories
The GR gravitational field equation of all Self-Creation Cosmology theories is modified to explicitly include Mach's principle, following Brans-Dicke, by including the stress-energy tensor of a scalar field energy :
- ,
where is the stress energy tensor describing the matter field. The scalar field
- , where is the Newtonian gravitational 'constant',
is coupled to the large scale distribution of matter in motion, described by a field equation of the simplest general covariant form
- ,
is the trace, of the stress energy tensor describing all non-gravitational and non-scalar field energy. In the new SCC, the Brans Dicke parameter has been determined to be unity.
The BD field equation is modified in all these theories by the non-conservation of stress-energy, so the conservation equation does not apply,
