Abstract

Computations of gravity-modified hadron electrodynamics are performed using nonpolynomial Lagrangian field-theory techniques. In particular, it is shown that the infinity encountered in a standard Lagrangian approach to the electromagnetic mass difference of pions is removed. The numerical value obtained for the mass shift is a little high, but consideration of the effects of tensor-meson dominance of gravity leads to a closer agreement with experiment.
