A generalized Newtonian potential is derived from the geodesic motion of test particles in Schwarzschild spacetime. This potential reproduces several relativistic features with higher accuracy than commonly used pseudo-Newtonian approaches.…

We analyze the steady radial accretion of matter into a nonrotating black hole. Neglecting the self-gravity of the accreting matter, we consider a rather general class of static, spherically symmetric and asymptotically flat background…

The concept of an objective spatial direction in special relativity is investigated and theories assuming light-speed isotropy while accepting the existence of a privileged spatial direction are classified. A natural generalization of the…

Three theoretical criteria for gravitational theories beyond general relativity are considered: obtaining the cosmological constant as an integration constant, deriving the energy conservation law as a consequence of the field equations,…

We study acoustic geometry in fluids with external pressure. In particular, we examine the conditions under which the acoustic metric mimics a Schwarzschild-like metric. We demonstrate that it is possible to mimic a Schwarzschild-like…

We present a method for computing the evolution of a spacetime containing a massive particle and a black hole. The essential idea is that the gravitational field is evolved using full numerical relativity, with the particle generating a…

In Ref. [1], exact (not only conformally related) analogue models for the Schwarzschild and Reissner-Nordstr\"om spacetimes were found. The background non-relativistic fluid flow was sustained by an external body force which is not affected…

We investigate the motion of extended test objects in the Schwarzschild spacetime, particularly the radial fall of two point masses connected by a massless rod of a length given as a fixed, periodic function of time. We argue that such a…

Gravitational repulsion is an inherent aspect of the Schwarzschild solution of the Einstein-Hilbert field equations of general relativity. We show that this circumstance means that it is possible to gravitationally accelerate particles to…

Approximate gravitational potentials are often used to describe analytically the motion of particles near black holes (BHs), as well as to study the structure of an accretion disk. Such 'pseudo-Newtonian' potentials are used with the…
