General Relativity and Gravitational Collapse

1970
In these lectures we shall assume that the reader is familiar with the basic ideas of general relativity. The following summary will serve mainly as an introduction to the notations and conventions used here.

General Relativity and Gravitation

2013
This chapter treats Einstein’s theory of gravitation, namely general relativity, as well as modifications and extensions thereof. The chapter starts with the foundational notion of “equivalence principle(s)” which more or less lead to describe the gravitational interaction in terms of a metric geometry with a linear connection.

Release of Gravitational Energy in General Relativity

Nature, 1964
THE possible cosmical importance of the release of gravitational energy is at present receiving renewed attention. Unlike previous investigations, however, the new ones deal with circumstances in which the differences between relativistic and classical treatments are significant.

Plane Gravitational Waves in General Relativity

Nature, 1957
POLARIZED plane gravitational waves were first discovered by N. Rosen1, who, however, came to the conclusion that such waves could not exist because the metric would have to contain certain physical singularities. More recent work by Taub2 and McVittie3 showed that there were no unpolarized plane waves, and this result has tended to confirm the view ...

Release of Gravitational Energy in General Relativity

Nature, 1965
THE clarity of Prof. McCrea's1 recent treatment of the Schwarzschild singularity and of his discussion on the release of gravitational energy in general relativity opens up the possibility of a slightly different point of view. The present contribution may be of some academic and pedagogic interest.

Relative Gravitational Field and Conservation Laws in General Relativity

Annalen der Physik, 1963
AbstractIt is shown that by a description of the gravitational field within the limits of Einstein's theory only a relative gravitational field, i. e. the gravitational field at a point x with respect to one at a point x′, is physically essential.
