Canonical ADM Tetrad Gravity: from Metrological Inertial Gauge Variables to Dynamical Tidal Dirac Observables
Sezione INFN di Firenze Polo Scientifico Via Sansone 1 50019 Sesto Fiorentino (FI), Italy Phone: 0039-055-4572334 FAX: 0039-055-4572364 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract In this updated review of canonical ADM tetrad gravity in a family of globally hyperbolic asymptotically Minkowskian space-times without super-translations I show which is the status of the art in the search of a canonical ba...
متن کاملNewtonian Aspects of General Relativistic Galaxy Models
Many cosmological observations call for the existence of dark matter. The most direct evidence for dark matter is inferred from the measured flatness of galactic rotation curves. The latter is based on Newtonian gravity. Alternative approaches to the rotation curve problem by means of general relativity have recently been put forward. The class of models of interest is a subset of the axially s...
متن کاملRelativistic MOND as an alternative to the dark matter paradigm
Milgrom’s Modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) provides an efficient way to summarize phenomenology of galaxies which does not lean on the notion of dark matter; it has great predictive power. Here I briefly review MOND as well as its implementation as a nonrelativistic modified gravity theory, AQUAL. Gravitational lensing and cosmology call for a relativistic gravity theory different from genera...
متن کاملRelativistic effects in galaxy clustering in a parametrized post - Friedmann universe
We explore the signatures of quintessence and modified gravity theories in the relativistic description of galaxy clustering within a parametrized post-Friedmann framework. For this purpose, we develop a calibration method to consistently account for horizon-scale effects in the linear parametrized post-Friedmann perturbations of minimally and nonminimally coupled scalar-tensor theories and tes...
متن کاملAn alternative to the dark matter paradigm: relativistic MOND gravitation
MOND, invented by Milgrom, is a phenomenological scheme whose basic premise is that the visible matter distribution in a galaxy or cluster of galaxies alone determines its dynamics. MOND fits many observations surprisingly well. Could it be that there is no dark matter in these systems and we witness rather a violation of Newton’s universal gravity law ? If so, Einstein’s general relativity wou...
