Our current standard theory of gravity is unable to explain the mechanism behind the accelerating expansion of the universe. This expansion seems to imply a repulsive property or force associated with gravitational interaction. We propose a two-charge theory of gravity based on the Quantum Field Theory applied to a second rank tensor field that allows for an attractive force between like charges and a repulsive force between opposite charges. This model could explain the accelerating expansion of the universe, and potentially, the matter-antimatter asymmetry. Our calculation of a lattice model with a billion points shows that the net gravitational force at any spacetime point would be slightly repulsive. This new model is also consistent with the local physics described by the standard theory of gravity. Our theory may be experimentally supported by results from the ALPHA Collaboration.
