Time-Varying Lense-Thirring System
C. Chicone, B. Mashhoon
We consider bound geodesic orbits of test masses in the exterior gravitational field of a rotating astronomical source whose proper angular momentum varies linearly with time. The…
Time-Varying Gravitomagnetism
Bahram Mashhoon
Time-varying gravitomagnetic fields are considered within the linear post-Newtonian approach to general relativity. A simple model is developed in which the gravitomagnetic field o…
Gravitational induction
Donato Bini, Christian Cherubini, Carmen Chicone +1
We study the linear post-Newtonian approximation to general relativity known as gravitoelectromagnetism (GEM); in particular, we examine the similarities and differences between GE…
An Embedding for General Relativity and its Implications for New Physics
Bahram Mashhoon, Paul Wesson
We show that any solution of the 4D Einstein equations of general relativity in vacuum with a cosmological constant may be embedded in a solution of the 5D Ricci-flat equations wit…
A Mission to Explore the Pioneer Anomaly
The Pioneer Explorer Collaboration, H. Dittus, S. G. Turyshev +37
The Pioneer 10 and 11 spacecraft yielded the most precise navigation in deep space to date. These spacecraft had exceptional acceleration sensitivity. However, analysis of their ra…
The Hypothesis of Locality and its Limitations
Bahram Mashhoon
The hypothesis of locality, its origin and consequences are discussed. This supposition is necessary for establishing the local spacetime frame of accelerated observers; in this co…
