Abstract
In the framework of a Kaluza-Klein-like scheme, based on a five-dimensional Riemannian space in which energy plays the role of the fifth dimension, we discuss a class of solutions of the five-dimensional Einstein equations in vacuum, which allows us to recover the energy-dependent phenomenological metric for gravitation, recently derived from the analysis of some experimental data concerning the slowing down of clock rates in the gravitational field of Earth.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
