A new white dwarf constraint on the rate of change of the gravitational constant
- M. Biesiada, B. Malec
- Physics
- 21 March 2003
In this paper we derive a bound on the rate of change of the gravitational constant G based on observations of the pulsating white dwarf G117-B15A. This star is a ZZ Ceti pulsator which has been…

- 28 September 2016
In this paper, based on a 2.29 GHz VLBI all-sky survey of 613 milliarcsecond ultra-compact radio sources with 0.0035<z<3.787, we describe a method of identifying the sub-sample which can serve as…
IS THERE EVIDENCE FOR DARK ENERGY EVOLUTION?
- Xuheng Ding, M. Biesiada, Shuo Cao, Zhengxiang Li, Zong-hong Zhu
- Physics
- 17 March 2015
Recently, Sahni et al. combined two independent measurements of H(z) from BAO data with the value of the Hubble constant H 0 = H ( z = 0 ) ?> in order to test the cosmological constant hypothesis by…
Strong gravitational lensing of gravitational waves from double compact binaries—perspectives for the Einstein Telescope
