Epicyclic orbital oscillations in Newton’s and Einstein’s gravity from the geodesic deviation equation
In a recent paper Abramowicz and Kluźniak [1] have discussed the problem of epicyclic oscillations in Newton’s and Einstein’s dynamics and have shown that Newton’s dynamics in a properly curved three-dimensional space is identical to testbody dynamics in the three-dimensional optical geometry of Schwarzschild spacetime. One of the main results of this paper was the proof that different behaviou...
متن کاملGeodesic Deviation of Photons in Einstein and Higher Derivative Gravity
We derive the wave equation obeyed by electromagnetic fields in curved spacetime. We find that there are Riemann and Ricci curvature coupling terms to the photon polarisation which result in a polarisation dependent deviation of the photon trajectories from null geodesics. Photons are found to have an effective mass in an external gravitational field and their velocity in an inertial frame is i...
متن کاملf(R) theories of gravity
Modified gravity theories have received increased attention lately due to combined motivation coming from high-energy physics, cosmology and astrophysics. Among numerous alternatives to Einstein’s theory of gravity, theories which include higher order curvature invariants, and specifically the particular class of f(R) theories, have a long history. In the last five years there has been a new st...
متن کاملCurvature scalar instability in f(R) gravity
An instability in the presence of matter in theories of gravity which include a 1/R correction in the gravitational action has been found by Dolgov and Kawasaki. In the present paper this instability is discussed for f(R) gravity in general. We focus on the Palatini formalism of the theory and it is shown that no such instability occurs in this version of f(R) gravity. The reasons for the appea...
متن کاملAction Growth in f ( R ) Gravity
Abstract Inspired by the recent “Complexity = Action” conjecture, we use the approach proposed by Lehner et al. to calculate the rate of the action of the WheelerDeWitt patch at late times for static uncharged and charged black holes in f (R) gravity. Our results have the same expressions in terms of the mass, charge, and electrical potentials at the horizons of black holes as in Einstein’s gra...
