In this paper, the model of radial motion of dusty matter for the spherically symmetric case in General Relativity (GR) was developed. The model can be used, in particular, to describe galactic halos of dark matter. The ...

We propose an extended General Relativistic formalism with boundary terms included, that describes the dynamics of quantum spinor fields, which can take intermediate values, named (3 + 1) -anyons. In the approach here wo...

We calculate the algebra of constraints for deparametrized general relativity with a space-time filling unstable D-brane for an arbitrary value of tachyon field T. We also propose observables that have vanishing Poisson ...

The secular approximation of the hierarchical three body systems has been proven to be very useful in addressing many astrophysical systems, from planets to stars to black holes. In such a system, two objects are on a ti...

We introduce a new scheme based on the marked correlation function to probe gravity using the large-scale structure of the Universe. We illustrate our approach by applying it to simulations of the metric-variation f(R) m...

We present a study of the so called relaxed field equations of general relativity in terms of a decomposition of the metric; which is designed to deal with the notion of particles. Several known results are generalized t...

Abstract We investigate the cosmological implications of an extended gravitational framework based on biconnection gravity, constructed from the Schr $$\ddot{\textrm{o}}$$ o ¨ dinger connection and its dual. In this app...

A física, como prática filosófica, designa a escolha de ângulo de abordagem sob o qual é possível perceber características fundamentais da física. Assumimos que os papéis do físico e do filósofo não são tão...

Abstract The exploration of the surrounding world and the universe is an important theme in the legacy of humankind. The detection of gravitational waves is adding a new dimension to this grand effort. What are the funda...

We investigate if a recently introduced formulation of general relativity on a Weyl-Integrable geometry, contains cosmological solutions exhibiting acceleration in the present cosmic expansion. We derive the general cond...

We introduce a new class of two dimensional gravity models using ideas motivated by the Teleparallel Equivalent of General Relativity. This leads to a rather natural formulation of a theory that has close links with Jack...

The role of Mach's principle in physics is discussed in relation to the equivalence principle. The difficulties encountered in attempting to incorporate Mach's principle into general relativity are discussed. A modified ...

Fil: Okon, Elias. Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México. Instituto de Investigaciones Filosóficas; México. La mecánica cuántica y la relatividad general entran en conflicto en diferentes aspectos. Mientras que ex...

Fil: Zabaleta Imaz, Josu. Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatea; España. Following a suggestion made by Einstein, a non-empirical or structural interpretation of the equality between the inertial and the gravitational mass is p...

On September 14, 2015 at 09:50:45 UTC the two detectors of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory simultaneously observed a transient gravitational-wave signal. The signal sweeps upwards in frequency fro...

ABSTRACT Tensism is the view that tense is not merely a property of language and the mind (narrowly individuated), but of the world itself. Perspectivalism extends this idea to all perspectival properties be they person ...

Lensing of gravitational waves (GWs) due to intervening massive astrophysical systems between the source and the observer is an inevitable consequence of the general theory of relativity, which can produce multiple GW ev...

We reassess the capacity for multimessenger inference of AT2017gfo/GW170817 using both kilonova and gravitational wave emission within the context of a recent simulation-based surrogate model for kilonova emission. Indep...

Relativity theory severely restricts the ability to perform nonlocal measurements in quantum mechanics. Studying such nonlocal schemes may thus reveal insights regarding the relations between these two fundamental theori...

En este trabajo se analizan, una década después de la implementación de la última reforma educativa, los resultados obtenidos en una encuesta realizada a docentes que se desempeñan en el nivel secundario y se los-c...

In this work, shells are mathematically constructed by applying the cut and paste procedure to D-dimensional spherically symmetric geometries. The weak energy condition for the matter on the shells is briefly analyzed. T...

The method of topological renormalization in anti–de Sitter (AdS) gravity consists in adding to the action a topological term which renders it finite, defining at the same time a well-posed variational problem. Here, w...
