The method of asymptotic expansions is used to build an approximation scheme relevant to celestial mechanics in relativistic theories of gravitation. A scalar theory is considered, both as a simple example and for its own sake. This theory…
We investigate the point-particle limit of the equations of motion valid for a system of extended bodies in a scalar alternative theory of gravitation: the size of one of the bodies being a small parameter xi, we calculate the limit, as xi…
An asymptotic framework is defined for the small parameter eta which quantifies a good separation between the extended bodies that make a weakly gravitating system. This is introduced within an alternative scalar theory of gravitation,…
A simple example is given of the implementation of the usual method of asymptotic expansions for weak gravitational fields. A scalar, preferred-frame theory of gravitation is considered, but the method is general. Two kinds of asymptotic…
A scalar theory of gravity with a preferred reference frame is presented. It is insisted on the dynamics, which involves a (non-trivial) extension of Newton's second law, and on the new version (v2) with isotropic space metric. We display…
The asymptotic scheme of post-Newtonian approximation defined for general relativity (GR) in the harmonic gauge by Futamase & Schutz (1983) is based on a family of initial data for the matter fields of a perfect fluid and for the initial…
A new asymptotic expansion method is developed to separate the Wheeler-DeWitt equation into the time-dependent Schr\"{o}dinger equation for a matter field and the Einstein-Hamilton-Jacobi equation for the gravitational field including the…
A scalar theory of gravitation with a preferred reference frame (PRF) is considered, that accounts for special relativity and reduces to it if the gravitational field cancels. The gravitating system consists of a finite number of…
A scalar theory with a preferred reference frame is summarized. To test that theory in celestial mechanics, an "asymptotic" post-Newtonian (PN) scheme has been developed. This associates a conceptual family of self-gravitating systems with…
In this article we investigate the properties of the asymptotically Schwarzschild-like metric as an alternative to the Schwarzschild solution in General Relativity. While asymptotically flat and similar to Schwarzschild at large distances…
I review the problem of motion for small bodies in General Relativity, with an emphasis on developing a self-consistent treatment of the gravitational self-force. An analysis of the various derivations extant in the literature leads me to…
Pseudo-Newtonian potentials are a tool often used in theoretical astrophysics to capture some key features of a black-hole space-time in a Newtonian framework. As a result, one can use Newtonian numerical codes, and Newtonian formalism in…
Near-Gaussian probability densities are common in many important physical applications. Here we develop an asymptotic expansion methodology for computing entropic functionals for such densities. The expansion proposed is a close relative of…
We study the accuracy of the post-Newtonian (PN) approximation and its formal region of validity, by investigating its optimal asymptotic expansion for the quasi-circular, adiabatic inspiral of a point particle into a Schwarzschild black…
We investigate asymptotic Schwarzschild exterior solutions in the context of modified gravity theories, specifically within the framework of $f(R)$ gravity, where the asymptotic behavior recovers the standard Schwarzschild solution of…
This paper is an addendum to the article by Candelier, Mehaddi & Vauquelin (2013) where the motion of a particle in a stratified fluid is investigated theoretically, at small Reynolds and P\'eclet numbers. We review briefly the method of…
Pseudo-Newtonian gravitational potential describing the gravitational field of static and spherically symmetric black holes in the universe with a repulsive cosmological constant is introduced. In order to demonstrate the accuracy of the…
We consider a collapsing sphere and discuss its evolution under the vanishing expansion scalar in the framework of $f(R)$ gravity. The fluid is assumed to be locally anisotropic which evolves adiabatically. To study the dynamics of the…
The theory considered interprets gravity as a pressure force. Thus, the scalar gravitational field defines the gravity acceleration field. However, it also determines the relation between the flat ``background metric'' and a curved…
We summarize a recent work done on the title's subject. First, we present the asymptotic scheme of post-Newtonian (PN) approximation for general relativity in the harmonic gauge. Then, we discuss the definition of the mass centers and the…
