Normal gravity field in relativistic geodesy
Sergei M. Kopeikin, Igor Yu. Vlasov, Wen-Biao Han
Modern geodesy is subject to a dramatic change from the Newtonian paradigm to Einstein's theory of general relativity. This is motivated by the ongoing advance in development of qu…
Geometry and dynamics of a tidally deformed black hole
Eric Poisson, Igor Vlasov
The metric of a nonrotating black hole deformed by a tidal interaction is calculated and expressed as an expansion in the strength of the tidal coupling. The expansion parameter is…
The Effacing Principle in the Post-Newtonian Celestial Mechanics
Sergei Kopeikin, Igor Vlasov
First post-Newtonian (PN) approximation of the scalar-tensor theory of gravity is used to discuss the effacing principle in N-body system, that is dependence of equations of motion…
Gravimagnetic effect of the barycentric motion of the Sun and determination of the post-Newtonian parameter gamma in the Cassini experiment
S. M. Kopeikin, A. G. Polnarev, G. Schaefer +1
The most precise test of the post-Newtonian gamma parameter in the solar system has been achieved in measurement of the frequency shift of radio waves to and from the Cassini space…
Parametrized Post-Newtonian Theory of Reference Frames, Multipolar Expansions and Equations of Motion in the N-body Problem
Sergei Kopeikin, Igor Vlasov
We discuss a covariant generalization of the parametrized post-Newtonian (PPN) formalism in a class of scalar-tensor theories of gravity. It includes an exact construction of a set…
