Abstract
Will (1971) has discussed a possible anisotropy in the gravitational constantG. Suppose that the attractive gravitational force between two particles of massesm1 andm2 is given by the usual expressionF=−Gm1m2r/r3, wherer is the separation vector. Ifc is the velocity of light in vacuo and if 1r≡r/r, he expresses the anisotropy byG=G∞[1+e(v·1r/c)2], whereG∞ is a constant,v is identified practically as the velocity of the Sun around the galaxy, and e≈1. Will's suggestion is to look for such an effect in the laboratory.
