Abstract
The Standard Model of Particle Physics treats four fields—the gravitational, electromagnetic, weak and strong fields. These fields are assumed to converge to a single field at the big bang, but the theory has failed to produce this convergence. Our theory proposes one primordial field and analyzes the evolution of this field. The key assumption is that only the primordial field exists—if any change is to occur, it must be based upon self-interaction, as there is nothing other than the field itself to interact with. This can be formalized as the Principle of Self-interaction and the consequences explored. I show that this leads to the linearized Einstein field equations and discuss the key ontological implications of the theory.
Highlights
Newton, in his analysis of gravity, concluded that it made no sense to imagine a truly empty vacuum with nothing in it; something must be there, to transmit force from one place to another

We summarize by emphasizing that self-interaction theory of gravity presents a novel reinterpretation of gravity that addresses current confusions associated with the success of the post-Newtonian approach to relativity
Summary
In his analysis of gravity, concluded that it made no sense to imagine a truly empty vacuum with nothing in it; something must be there, to transmit force from one place to another. Based on this formulation of physics, I propose a “change operator”, acting on the field and represent the change as the field acting on itself The addition of these terms completes the linearized field equations first derived by Heaviside and later derived from Einstein’s general relativistic nonlinear field equations. That distinguishes our linear gravitomagnetic field equations from the equivalent field equations derived from general relativity Relativists assume that these equations apply only for “weak” gravitational fields, whereas our theory is “strength-independent”, and applies for all strengths. We summarize by emphasizing that self-interaction theory of gravity presents a novel reinterpretation of gravity that addresses current confusions associated with the success of the post-Newtonian approach to relativity
