Scientific paper
This is a continuation of a previous paper, in which a theory of gravitation was developed based on the existence of a preferred frame of reference and a preferred time coordinate in the universe. The gravitational field equations are derived with the help of a variational principle containing three constants. Two relations among the constants are introduced, leaving one of them arbitrary. This constant does not affect the precession of the perihelion of Mercury but does affect the behaviour of gravitational waves. By changing one of the relations among the constants, one can account for the discrepancy in the precession of the perihelion associated with the oblateness of the sun, as found by Dicke and Goldenberg.
