Laboratory experiments on gravitation are usually performed with objects of constant density, so that the analysis of the forces concerns only the geometry of their shape. In an ideal experiment, the shapes of the constituent parts will be…

Physical consequences from gravitation equations based on Poincar\'{e} ideas of relativity of space and time in respect of measuring instruments are considered. The most interesting of them are the possibility of the existence of stable…
We discuss theories with inverse powers of the Ricci scalar. We find the exact metric produced by point masses in these theories, and show that the gravitational force between static objects is consistent with experiments.
We investigate a new experimental possibility of measuring the Newtonian gravitational constant $G$ by using the weak measurement. Amplification via weak measurement is one of the interesting phenomena of quantum mechanics. In this letter,…

Perhaps the most powerful method for deriving the Newtonian gravitational interaction between two masses is the multipole expansion. Once inner multipoles are calculated for a particular shape this shape can be rotated, translated, and even…
