Abstract

The external metric in the Schwarzschild problem is considered using the source theory in the G2-approximation within general relativity and phenomenologically a three-graviton vertex following from the field theory. It is shown that in the mass defect terms \({{g}_{{00}}}\) is identical in both approaches and is consistent with the Newtonian one. In the spatial region, it is probably different.
