    It's a perfectly fine limiting case of G + Λg = 8πT. A minor point: it's "the Newton equation" or "Newton's equation", but not "the Newton's equation" (in the same way that one cou…

    Systems like the bullet cluster ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullet_Cluster ) are taken as evidence that most of the matter in large-scale, gravitationally bound astrophysical s…

    It's like the old saying: offense is taken, not given.

    I don't think there is any connection. But since the submission was titled "covariant and contravariant" without any kind of context, it seemed appropriate that we could all share …

    A contravariant object transforms like a vector. A covariant object transforms like the gradient of a scalar.

    We have no experimental evidence that the calculations for gravitational Hawking radiation (or their physical interpretation) are valid. The notion that dumb holes exhibit all the …

    120 years ago, people thought that experimental results on wave propagation in continuous media could be used to make statements about wave propagation in electrodynamics. That's h…
