The Laser Gravitational Compass
Ivan S. Ferreira, C. Frajuca, Nadja S. Magalhaes +2
Using the observational properties of Einstein's gravitational field it is shown that a minimum of four non-coplanar mass probes are necessary for the Michelson and Morley interfer…
Scalar field propagation in braneworld black hole scenario obtained from Nash theorem
Rodrigo Dal Bosco Fontana, Clovis Achy Soares Maia, Marcos D. Maia +1
We determine the scalar field evolution of a braneworld localized black hole with both dark matter and dark energy components, obtained within a dynamical and continuous embedding…
The Impact of the Higgs on Einstein's Gravity
M. D. Maia, Valdir B. Bezerra
We present an updated review of Kraichnan's derivation of Einstein's equations from quantum field theory, including the period after the discovery of the Higgs mechanism. Gravitati…
Omnidirectional Gravitational Wave Detector with a Laser-Interferometric Gravitational Compass
M. D. Maia, Ivan S. Ferreira, Claudio M. G. Sousa +2
Based on the Szekeres-Pirani gravitational compass we suggest the addition of a fourth, non-coplanar mass/mirror to the presently existing laser based gravitational wave observator…
On The Topological Nature of the Cosmological Constant
M. D. Maia
It is shown that topological changes in space-time are necessary to make General Relativity compatible with the Newtonian limit and to solve the hierarchy of the fundamental intera…
The Deformable Universe
M. D. Maia, A. J. S. Capistrano, J. S. Alcaniz +1
The concept of smooth deformations of a Riemannian manifolds, recently evidenced by the solution of the Poincaré conjecture, is applied to Einstein's gravitational theory and in pa…
