The Hubble tension is one of the most significant challenges in modern cosmology. Developing new approaches to estimate the Hubble constant is therefore crucial, and in this work, we employ a Gaussian process, a fully model-independent…
The Hubble constant is of paramount importance in astrophysics and cosmology. A large number of methods have been developed with different electromagnetic probes to estimate its value. The most recent results show a tension between values…
Gravity differs from all other known fundamental forces since it is best described as a curvature of spacetime. For that reason it remains resistant to unifications with quantum theory. Gravitational interaction is fundamentally weak and…
A new and universal method for implementing scale invariance, called best matching, is presented. It extends to scaling the method introduced by Bertotti and the author to create a fully relational dynamics that satisfies Mach's principle.…
A brief summary of the objections to the relational nature of inertial mass, gravitational mass and electric charge is presented. The objections are refuted by showing that the measurement process of comparing an instrument reference clock…
In this proposal we study the problem of the virial mass discrepancy in the context of DGP brane gravity. DGP model is a kind of brane-world model such that the corrections to the usual gravity occurred in the large distance limit relative…
Gravitational waveforms play a crucial role in comparing observed signals to theoretical predictions. However, obtaining accurate analytical waveforms directly from general relativity remains challenging. Existing methods involve a complex…

We consider the sticky collision between two sphere of equal rest mass, moving with equal but opposite speeds in a horizontal plane. The collision takes place on the pan of a high sensitivity balance. The conditions of mechanical and…
It is shown that gravitational nature of inertial mass (Mach principle) agrees with idea of interaction of gravitational and electromagnetic forces and does not contradict the laws of classical mechanics. According to the simple…

Understanding the coevolution of supermassive black holes and their host galaxies requires tracing their growth over time. Mass measurements of distant black holes have been limited to active nuclei and commonly rely on spatially unresolved…
The gravitational wave observations of colliding black holes have opened a new window into the unexplored extreme gravity sector of physics, where the gravitational fields are immensely strong, non-linear, and dynamical. 10 binary black…
In this article the concept of mass is analyzed based on the special and general relativity theories and particle (quantum) physics. The mass of a particle (m=E(0)/c^2) is determined by the minimum (rest) energy to create that particle…
This article shows the relation between the inertial mass and the gravity mass. The gravity field can propagate only with a limited velocity. Therefore the Helmholz equation is introduced for the gravity potential. The analysis of the…
There exist several different proposals for a measure in Quantum Gravity theories. Although sometimes being labelled as non covariant, the measure derived in [7] for GR has the particularity that, in the extremal, the volume divergences…
