  Newton’s theory of gravitation has been outdated by relativity theory explaining specific phenomena like perihelion precession of Mercury, light deflection and very recently the detection of gravitational waves. But the disappearance of the obvious gravitational force and the variation of time are arguable concepts difficult to directly prove. Present methodology is based on hypotheses as expressed in a previous article: a universal time and an inertial mass variable according to the Lorentz factor (which could not be envisioned at Newton’s age). Because this methodology is mainly stood on Newtonian mechanics, it will be called neo-Newtonian mechanics. This theory is in coherence with the time of the Quantum Mechanics. In Newtonian mechanics, all forces, including gravitational force, are deducted from the linear momentum. Introducing the variable inertial mass, the result of the demonstration is an updated expression of the net force at high velocity: 
  F = 
  γ
  <sup>3</sup>
  m<sub>g</sub>a. If such a factor in 
  γ
  <sup>3</sup> can look a bit strange at first sight for a force, let us remind that the lost energy in a synchrotron is already measured in 
  γ
  <sup>4</sup>. Next article will be on the perihelion precession of Mercury within neo-Newtonian mechanics.

Introduction</title><sec id="s1_1"><title>1.1. Relativity Hypotheses</title><p>For a century, hypothesis of a variable time is laid down by the special theory of relativity. This hypothesis can explain many Nature observations, experiments and formulas, for example, the demonstration of the Lorentz factor. Because of such good explanations, the hypothesis of a variable time has been validated. Nevertheless, it remains some paradoxes and some predictions which are difficult to measure directly, as a reversible time, an “imaginary” time or even the time variation itself.</p><p>And in developing his ideas about the consequences of the equivalence principle between gravitational mass and inertial mass, Einstein leads to a new vision of gravitation which is to replace that of Newton: the general theory of relativity. The most important aspect is the disappearance of gravitational force concept. For Einstein, the motion of a body is not determined by strength, but by the configuration of space-time [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.66042-ref1">1</xref>] . For example, relativity theory explains the deflection of light and the perihelion precession of Mercury, and predicts the gravitational waves which have been very recently detected.</p><p>But the absence of gravitational force and a variable time according to the reference frame remain concepts difficult to directly prove.</p></sec><sec id="s1_2"><title>1.2. The Purpose</title><p>The question is: is it possible to explain such phenomena within another theory, i.e. using gravitational forces and a universal time?

Neo-Newtonian Hypotheses</title><p>The basis has been laid down in a previous article [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.66042-ref2">2</xref>] : Lorentz factor can be demonstrated without using a variable time! It is only necessary to consider a variable inertial mass, different of the gravitational mass, and the energy of the particle linked to the inertial mass. If Newton distinguished the concepts of gravitational mass from the inertial mass [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.66042-ref3">3</xref>] , he could not be envisioned a variation of the inertial mass only detected at very high velocity (let us remind in the 17<sup>th</sup> century, Huygens was only trying to estimate the light celerity [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.66042-ref4">4</xref>] ).
