Physical consequences of a solution of the nonsymmetric unified field theory

Abstract

The physical consequences and possible tests of our solution of the nonsymmetric unified field theory of gravitation and electromagnetism are discussed. It is found in general that a universal constant $k$ introduced in the unification of the theory shows itself as a fourth-order effect in the propagation of light near a charged body. Further, it is shown that magnetic monopoles are not an allowed solution of the theory.
