In general relativity (GR) no observer is physically privileged. As a strict consequence, it can be shown that the physical generation of gravitational waves (GW's) is quite impossible.
There is a perfect concordance between Friedmann's cosmological models and the correspondent (purely gravitational interactions and negligible pressure) Newtonian models. This renders quite intuitive the fact that in general relativity no…
I give here: i) a very simple proof that the physical non-existence of gravitational waves (GW's) is quite consistent with the basic principles of general relativity (GR); ii) a new argument against the physical existence of GW's; iii) a…
The physical non-existence of gravitational waves (GW's) as a consequence of the non-existence in general relativity (GR) of physically privileged reference frames, and of the ``plasticity'' of relativistic notion of a coordinate system.
A physical consequence of a well-known Fermi's theorem: no motion of masses can generate gravitational waves.
A quite evident and radical argument proves that no motion of masses can generate gravitational waves.
The full relativity of the concepts of motion and rest, which is characteristic of the Einsteinian general relativity (GR), does not allow the generation of physical gravitational waves (GW's). -- The undulatory nature of a metric tensor is…
In the exact (non-linear) formulation of general relativity (GR) no motion of bodies can give origin to gravitational waves (GW's) - as it has been proved. Accordingly, the measured rate of change of the orbital period of binary pulsar B…
Null cosmic strings are shown to disturb gravitational fields of massive bodies and create outgoing gravitational waves (GW). Perturbations of the metric caused by a straight null string and a point-like massive source are found as…
It is shown that, in the framework of Relativistic Theory of Gravitation with massive graviton, gravitational waves, due to the causality condition, do not bear negative energy flows.
General relativity describes gravitation in terms of the geometry of spacetime. It predicts the existence of gravitational waves (GWs) that stretch and compress spacetime and were detected recently by state-of-the-art interferometer…
The analysis of a general multibody physical system governed by Einstein's equations in quite difficult, even if numerical methods (on a computer) are used. Some of the difficulties -- many coupled degrees of freedom, dynamic instability --…
Very straightforward arguments proving the physical non-existence of GW's and of BH's. They are so simple that even the members of the Wheelerian establishment will understand them.
A proof that the generation of gravitational waves is physically impossible.
The existence of gravitational radiation is a natural prediction of any relativistic description of the gravitational interaction. In this chapter, we focus on gravitational waves, as predicted by Einstein's general theory of relativity.…
It can be demonstrated that no motion of masses can generate gravitational waves. Accordingly: i) the time decrease of the orbital period of the famous binary PSR1913+16 cannot yield an experimental proof of the emission of gravitational…
Light waves carry along their own gravitational field; for simple plain electromagnetic waves the gravitational field takes the form of a pp-wave. I present the corresponding exact solution of the Einstein-Maxwell equations and discuss the…
We construct a general relativity formula for the law of gravity for material bodies. The formula contains three numeric parameters that are to be determined experimentally. If they are chosen from symmetry considerations, then the theory…
These notes address the planar gravitational wave solutions of general relativity in empty space-time, and analyze the motion of test particles in the gravitational wave field. Next we consider related solutions of the Einstein equations…
In this manuscript we review the theoretical foundations of gravitational waves in the framework of Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity. Following Einstein's early efforts we first derive the linearised Einstein field equations…
