Abstract
The formalism of the previous paper, in which mass and proper time are treated as independent dynamical variables in a canonical formalism, is shown to imply certain physical consequences. There will exist a mass vs proper time uncertainty relation; trajectories and proper time will be exactly determinable in an external gravitational field, while mass will be determinable in an external electromagnetic field; and conventional quantum mechanics will imply that equivalence is invalid for low-lying quantum states. This leads to a second possible way to quantize a system in a gravitational field, which introduces a fundamental length. It is shown that it is possible to test for quantum interference effects of gravitational systems with present technology and conventional techniques, using the earth's gravitational field.
