Foundations of General Relativity

open access: yes
This Element provides a somewhat comprehensive interpretation of general relativity, a description of what reality would be like if the theory were true. This concerns (i) what possibilities it represents, (ii) the internal structure of those possibilities and their interrelations, and, to some extent, (iii) how those possibilities differ from what's ...

Unimodular gravity vs general relativity: a status report [PDF]

open access: yesClassical and quantum gravity, 2022
Unimodular gravity (UG) is an alternative to general relativity (GR) which, however, is so closely related to the latter that one can wonder to what extent they are different.

The Confrontation between General Relativity and Experiment

open access: yesLiving Reviews in Relativity, 2001
The status of experimental tests of general relativity and of theoretical frameworks for analysing them are reviewed. Einstein's equivalence principle (EEP) is well supported by experiments such as the Eötvös experiment, tests of special relativity, and ...

Testing General Relativity with Gravitational Waves: An Overview [PDF]

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
The detections of gravitational-wave (GW) signals from compact binary coalescence by ground-based detectors have opened up the era of GW astronomy. These observations provide opportunities to test Einstein’s general theory of relativity at the strong ...

Determinism and General Relativity [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophy of Science, 2021
We investigate the fate of determinism in general relativity (GR), comparing the philosopher’s account with the physicist’s well-posed initial value formulations. The fate of determinism is interwoven with the question of what it is for a spacetime to be ‘physically reasonable’.

Traversable Wormholes in General Relativity. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2021
Blázquez-Salcedo et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 126, 101102 (2021)PRLTAO0031-900710.1103/PhysRevLett.126.101102] obtained asymptotically flat traversable wormhole solutions in the Einstein-Dirac-Maxwell theory without using phantom matter.

General Relativity and Philosophy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Philosophical Investigations, 2021
Is philosophy useful for physics? Many physicists and philosophers believe that it is; but there are those who challenge the usefulness of philosophy for science. Three major objections can be identified in their reasoning: 1.

Nonlocal extension of causal thermodynamics of the isotropic cosmic fluid

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2022
We establish the nonlocal generalization of the Israel-Stewart model for the relativistic causal thermodynamics of the cosmic fluid, which evolves in the homogeneous isotropic Universe.

Testing General Relativity with Pulsar Timing

open access: yesLiving Reviews in Relativity, 2003
Pulsars of very different types, including isolated objects and binaries (with short- and long-period orbits, and white-dwarf and neutron-star companions) provide the means to test both the predictions of general relativity and the viability of alternate
