A note on matter covariantization for gravity coupling

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2019-01-16 v2

Abstract

Covariantization is of course required for initially flat space matter to couple consistently to GR; here I show in detail for concrete systems how it follows in the same physical way as that deriving GR itself from its initial free-field form.
