The Schwarzschild Metric
A Lagrangian that can be used to describe geodesics is [itex]F = g_{\mu\nu}v^\mu v^\mu[/itex], where [itex]v^\mu = dx^\mu/ds[/itex]…
Does Gravity Gravitate? Part 2
In the first post of this series, I talked about two ways to answer the title question, one leading to the answer "no" and the other leading…
An Equation for the Centrifugal Force Reversal Near A Black Hole
My goal in this article is to derive a simple equation for the proper acceleration of an observer traveling on a circular path around a Schwarzschild black…
