Gravity: An Introduction to Einstein's General Relativity, J.B. Oct 9, 2011 - Indeed, Einstein originally proposed a static universe, where gravitational attraction was balanced by the gravitationally repulsive effects of a new cosmological constant term he introduced into his equations to achieve a static model. Sep 3, 2013 - The problem is that general relativity is commonly, both among physicists and in the pop sci literature, referred to as Einstein's theory of gravity, rubber sheet and all. Otherwise, you introduce issues unrelated with the pure essence of special relativity as a kinematical/dynamical extension of relativity to electromagnetism. May 6, 2011 - There are many news article on the latest report from Gravity Probe B stating how the results are consistent with predictions from Einstein's General Relativity (see here, here, and here). €�Our analysis of observations of galaxy clusters show[s] that the redshift of the light is proportionally offset in relation to the gravitational influence from the galaxy cluster's gravity. Sep 28, 2011 - It will be a while before we have follow-up experiments that could conceivably replicate these results, but it's interesting to see that another aspect of Einstein's work, the General Theory of Relativity, has received a new kind of confirmation, this time on a cosmological scale. May 2, 2014 - When it comes to "quantum gravity" theories that seek to reconcile quantum mechanics and general relativity, there are currently two main scenarios. In this case, distant stellar systems would have no Doppler shift relative .. Approach from curved spacetime but in the pure postulational realm. Einstein famously used the equivalence principle to arrive at his theory of .
