The Eikonal Approximation and the Gravitational Dynamics of Binary Systems
In this thesis we study the conservative gravitational dynamics of binary systems using the eikonal approximation; allowing us to use scattering amplitude techniques to calculate dynamical quantities…
A New Take on Gravitational Waves
Following recent announcements concerning the detection of gravitational waves and the accompanying claims that this offers further proof of the validity of the theory of general relativity, here…
Newtonian Gravitational Radiation and Waves
In this paper, we review historical Maxwell's equation for gravity and recent studies on the lack of curvature of linear dipole gravitational waves. The extended Newton's gravity necessarily has the…
Spacetime Metamaterials
This paper presents the authors' vision of the emerging field of spacetime metamaterials in a cohesive and pedagogical perspective. For this purpose, it systematically builds up the physics, modeling…
Acoustic analog of gravitational wave
We explore nonlinear perturbations in different static fluid systems. We find that the equations, corresponding to the perturbation of the integrals of motion, i.e; Bernoulli's constant and the mass…
On Maxwell Equations for Gravitational Field
For explicitly time depending mass density which satisfies a continuity equation, it is shown that Maxwell-like equations for gravitational field follow naturally without any need of General…
Gravitational Waves, Newton’s Law and Coulomb's Law Interpreted by Particle Radiation and Interaction Theory Based on Yangton & Yington Theory
The structures of Photon, Higgs Boson, Electron, and Positron are proposed based on “Wu’s Particle”, a Yangton and Yington circulating pair. Gravitational Force is generated by the attractive force…
Lensing Effects in Retarded Gravity
Galaxies are huge physical systems having dimensions of many tens of thousands of light years. Thus any change at the galactic center will be noticed at the rim only tens of thousands of years later.…
Spacetime orientation and the meaning of Lorentz invariance in general relativity
The parity violation at the level of weak interactions and other similar discrete symmetries breaking show that the invariance of laws under the full group of Lorentz transformations can not be taken…
