Post{newtonian Cosmological Dynamics
The non{linear dynamics of self{gravitating collisionless matter with vanishing vorticity is studied in a general relativistic framework, using synchronous and comoving (i.e. Lagrangian) coordinates. Writing the equations in terms of the metric tensor of the spatial sections orthogonal to the uid ow allows an unambiguous expansion in inverse powers of the speed of light. The Newtonian and post{...
متن کاملPost-newtonian Cosmology
Newtonian Cosmology is commonly used in astrophysical problems, because of its obvious simplicity when compared with general relativity. However it has inherent difficulties, the most obvious of which is the non-existence of a well-posed initial value problem. In this paper we investigate how far these problems are met by using the post-Newtonian approximation in cosmology.
متن کاملPost-Newtonian expansion for Gauss-Bonnet Gravity
The observed late time accelerated expansion of the universe [1] combined with the problems that arise when trying to rationalize it with the simplest of explanations, such as a cosmological constant [2], have triggered an increased interest in finding alternatives for the nature of dark energy. Scalar fields, widely used in the inflationary paradigm [3], constitute a familiar way of providing ...
متن کاملPost-Newtonian Gravitational Radiation
Let us declare that the most important devoir of any physical theory is to draw firm predictions for the outcome of laboratory experiments and astronomical observations. Unfortunately, the devoir is quite difficult to fulfill in the case of general relativity, essentially because of the complexity of the Einstein field equations, to which only few exact solutions are known. For instance, it is ...
متن کاملPost-Newtonian approximations
After a very basic introduction about the geometric view of gravitation, we deal with Newtonian and post-Newtonian approximations giving an overview of the parametrized post-Newtonian formalism. In the final part, we focus on the classical experimental tests. This is a bibliographic work in which an effort has been made to explore the historical timeline and motivation, managing the original re...
