Eddington’s Prediction for General Relativity Revisited

Аннотация

Eddington’s prediction for general relativity (GR) is exemplified by three cases: a static spherically symmetric gravitational field, radiation of gravitational waves, and a homogeneous isotropic cosmological model. The results of GR for a static field are obtained using only Poisson’s equation instead of the Einstein–Hilbert equations. Degeometrization of GR will allow the gravitational interaction to be unified with others described in the framework of the Standard Model of particle physics.
