  2. Gravitational energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_energy

    For two pairwise interacting point particles, the gravitational potential energy is the work that an outside agent must do in order to to quasi-statically bring the masses together (which is therefore, exactly opposite the work done by the gravitational field on the masses): = = =, where is the displacement vector between the two particles, = | | is the distance between the two particles, and ...

  3. Pound–Rebka experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pound–Rebka_experiment

    Measurement of this minute amount of frequency shift, 500 times smaller than the half-width, required a sophisticated protocol for data acquisition and data analysis. The best way to measure a small shift is often by "slope detection", measuring the resonance not at its peak, but rather comparing the absorption curve near its points of maximum ...

  4. Introduction to general relativity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Introduction_to_general...

    In consequence, if energy is a source of gravity, momentum must be a source as well. The same is true for quantities that are directly related to energy and momentum, namely internal pressure and tension. Taken together, in general relativity it is mass, energy, momentum, pressure and tension that serve as sources of gravity: they are how ...

  5. Gravimetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravimetry

    Gravimetry is the measurement of the strength of a gravitational field. Gravimetry may be used when either the magnitude of a gravitational field or the properties of matter responsible for its creation are of interest. The study of gravity changes belongs to geodynamics.

  6. Theory of relativity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_relativity

    In 1915, he devised the Einstein field equations which relate the curvature of spacetime with the mass, energy, and any momentum within it. Some of the consequences of general relativity are: Gravitational time dilation: Clocks run slower in deeper gravitational wells. [11] Precession: Orbits precess in a way unexpected in Newton's theory of ...

  7. AEgIS experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AEgIS_experiment

    AEgIS (Antimatter Experiment: gravity, Interferometry, Spectroscopy), AD-6, is an experiment at the Antiproton Decelerator facility at CERN.Its primary goal is to measure directly the effect of Earth's gravitational field on antihydrogen atoms with significant precision. [1]

  9. Gravity of Earth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity_of_Earth

    The gravity g′ at depth d is given by g′ = g(1 − d/R) where g is acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Earth, d is depth and R is the radius of the Earth. If the density decreased linearly with increasing radius from a density ρ 0 at the center to ρ 1 at the surface, then ρ ( r ) = ρ 0 − ( ρ 0 − ρ 1 ) r / R , and the ...
