Bi-scalar tensor vector gravity

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bi-scalar tensor vector gravity theory (BSTV)[1] is an extension of the tensor–vector–scalar gravity theory (TeVeS).[2] TeVeS is a relativistic generalization of Mordehai Milgrom's Modified Newtonian Dynamics MOND paradigm proposed by Jacob Bekenstein.[3] BSTV was proposed by R.H.Sanders. BSTV makes TeVeS more flexible by making a non-dynamical scalar field in TeVeS into a dynamical one.[4]
