Abstract
The parametrized post-Newtonian formalism is generalized to nonmetric theories of gravitation. The dynamics of a system of two gravitating b odies is investigated in the framework of this formalism. Experiments to measure the numerical values of some combinations of the PPN parame ters are proposed.
