Scientific paper

This paper maintains that it is the Pauli metric, not the Jordan metric, which describes the massless spin-two graviton in the Brans-Dicke theory. Similarly in the 'Jordan-Brans-Dicke theory' based on Kaluza-Klein unification, only the Pauli metric can correctly describe Einstein's theory of gravitation. This necessitates a reinterpretation of the 'old' Kaluza-Klein cosmology as well as the Brans-Dicke theory. More significantly, the analysis shows that the Kaluza-Klein dilaton must generate a fifth force which could violate the equivalence principle.
