Theory of general relativity?

General relativity is physicist Albert Einstein's understanding of how
gravity affects the fabric of space-time.

The theory, which Einstein published in 1915, expanded the theory of
special relativity that he had published 10 years earlier. Special
relativity argued that space and time are inextricably connected, but that
theory didn't acknowledge the existence of gravity.LAY SOUND

HOW DOES GENERAL RELATIVITY WORK?

To understand general relativity, first, let's start with gravity, the
force of attraction that two objects exert on one another. Sir Isaac Newton
quantified gravity in the same text in which he formulated his three laws
of motion, the "Principia."

The gravitational force tugging between two bodies depends on how massive
each one is and how far apart the two lie, according to NASA Glenn Research
Center. Even as the center of the Earth is pulling you toward it (keeping
you firmly lodged on the ground), your center of mass is pulling back at
the Earth. But the more massive body barely feels the tug from you, while
with your much smaller mass, you find yourself firmly rooted thanks to that
same force. Yet Newton's laws assume that gravity is an innate force of an
object that can act over a distance.

Albert Einstein, in his theory of special relativity, determined that the
laws of physics are the same for all non-accelerating observers, and he
showed that the speed of light within a vacuum is the same no matter the
speed at which an observer travels, according to Wired.

As a result, he found that space and time were interwoven into a single
continuum known as space-time. And events that occur at the same time for
one observer could occur at different times for another.

As he worked out the equations for his general theory of relativity,
Einstein realized that massive objects caused a distortion in space-time.
Imagine setting a large object in the center of a trampoline. The object
would press down into the fabric, causing it to dimple. If you then attempt
to roll a marble around the edge of the trampoline, the marble would spiral
inward toward the body, pulled in much the same way that the gravity of a
planet pulls at rocks in space.

General relativity is a physical theory about space and time and it has a
beautiful mathematical description. According to general relativity, the
spacetime is a 4-dimensional object that has to obey an equation, called
the Einstein equation, which explains how the matter curves the spacetime.

General relativity explains gravity, and in this theory, it is not really a
"force" anymore. The gravitational field comes out of the description of
general relativity as a result of the curved spacetime.     G   IS

General relativity has passed all the experimental tests so far, but its
applicability is expected to break down when [the] effects of quantum
mechanics (the theory of the very small particles) should become dominant.
Light bends around a massive object, such as a black hole, causing it to
act as a lens for the things that lie behind it. Astronomers routinely use
this method to study stars and galaxies behind massive objects.

The Einstein Cross, a quasar in the Pegasus constellation, according to the
European Space Agency (ESA), and is an excellent example of gravitational
lensing. The quasar is seen as it was about 11 billion years ago; the
galaxy that it sits behind is about 10 times closer to Earth. Because the
two objects align so precisely, four images of the quasar appear around the
galaxy because the intense gravity of the galaxy bends the light coming
from the quasar.      [ KR  BENDING OF LIGHT IS DUE TO THE CONCEPT OF SPACE
AND TIME WARP AS FLAY LAYERS IN THE SPACE. ]

The orbit of Mercury is shifting very gradually over time due to the
curvature of space-time around the massive sun, according to NASA.

As the closest planet to the sun, Mercury’s perihelion (the point along its
orbit that it’s closest to the sun) is predicted to follow a slightly
different direction over time. Under Newton’s predictions, gravitational
forces in the solar system should advance Mercury's precession ( change in
its orbital orientation) is measured to be 5,600 arcseconds per century (1
arcsecond is equal to 1/3600 of a degree). However, there is a discrepancy
of 43 arcseconds per century, something Einstein's theory of general
relativity accounts for. Using Einstein’s theory of curved space-time, the
precession of Mercury’s perihelion should advance slightly more than under
the predictions of Newton, since planets don’t orbit the sun in a static
elliptical orbit.

The electromagnetic radiation of an object is stretched out slightly inside
a gravitational field. Think of the sound waves that emanate from a siren
on an emergency vehicle; as the vehicle moves toward an observer, sound
waves are compressed, but as it moves away, they are stretched out, or
redshifted. Known as the Doppler Effect, the same phenomena occurs with
waves of light at all frequencies.Y SOUND

Einstein predicted that violent events, such as the collision of two black
holes, create ripples in space-time known as gravitational waves. And in
2016, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO)
announced that it had detected such a signal for the first time.

In 2021 research published in the journal Physical Review X, challenged
several of Einstein's predictions by observing a double-pulsar system
around 2,400 light-years from Earth. Each of the seven predictions of
general relativity was confirmed by the study.

Pulsars are a type of neutron star that appears to pulse due to beams of
electromagnetic radiation and that are emitting from their magnetic poles.

The pulsar test subjects spin very fast - around 44 times a second - and
are 30% more massive than the sun but are only 15 miles (around 24
kilometers) in diameter, making them incredibly dense. This means that
their gravitational pull is immense, for example, on the surface of a
neutron star gravity is around 1 billion times stronger than its pull on
Earth. This makes neutron stars a great test subject to challenge
predictions in Einstein's theories, such as the ability of gravity to bend
light.

"We follow the propagation of radio photons emitted from a cosmic
lighthouse, a pulsar, and track their movements in the strong gravitational
field of a companion pulsar," Professor Ingrid Stairs from the University
of British Columbia at Vancouver said in a statement.

"We see for the first time how the light is not only delayed due to a
strong curvature of spacetime around the companion but also that the light
is deflected by a small angle of 0.04 degrees that we can detect. Never
before has such an experiment been conducted at such a high spacetime
curvature"

Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity

Albert Einstein's 1905 theory of special relativity is one of the most
important papers ever published in the field of physics. Special relativity
is an explanation of how speed affects mass, time and space. The theory
includes a way for the speed of light to define the relationship between
energy and matter — small amounts of mass (m) can be interchangeable with
enormous amounts of energy (E), as defined by the classic equation E = mc^2.

Special relativity applies to "special" cases — it's mostly used when
discussing huge energies, ultra-fast speeds and astronomical distances, all
without the complications of gravity. Einstein officially added gravity to
his theories in 1915, with the publication of his paper on general
relativity.

As an object approaches the speed of light, the object's mass becomes
infinite and so does the energy required to move it. That means it is
impossible for any matter to go faster than light travels. This cosmic
speed limit inspires new realms of physics and science fiction, as people
consider travel across vast distances.

WHAT WAS PHYSICS LIKE BEFORE RELATIVITY?  NEWTON

Before Einstein, astronomers (for the most part) understood the universe in
terms of three laws of motion presented by Isaac Newton in 1686. These
three laws are:

1.     Objects in motion or at rest remain in the same state unless an
external force imposes change. This is also known as the concept of inertia.

2.     The force acting on an object is equal to the mass of the object
multiplied by its acceleration. In other words, you can calculate how much
force it takes to move objects with various masses at different speeds.

3.     For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Newton's laws proved valid in nearly every application in physics,
according to Encyclopedia Britannica. They formed the basis for our
understanding of mechanics and gravity.

But some things couldn't be explained by Newton's work: For example, light.

To shoehorn the odd behavior of light into Newton's framework for physics
scientists in the 1800s supposed that light must be transmitted through
some medium, which they called the "luminiferous ether." That hypothetical
ether had to be rigid enough to transfer light waves like a guitar string
vibrates with sound, but also completely undetectable in the movements of
planets and stars.

That was a tall order. Researchers set about trying to detect that
mysterious ether, hoping to understand it better. In 1887, wrote
astrophysicist Ethan Siegal in the Forbes science blog, Starts With a Bang,
physicist Albert A. Michelson and chemist Edward Morley calculated how
Earth's motion through the ether affected how the speed of light is
measured, and unexpectedly found that the speed of light is the same no
matter what Earth's motion is.

If the speed of light didn't change despite the Earth's movement through
the ether, they concluded, there must be no such thing as ether to begin
with: Light in space moved through a vacuum.

That meant it couldn't be explained by classical mechanics. Physics needed
a new paradigm.

HOW DID EINSTEIN COME UP WITH SPECIAL RELATIVITY?

According to Einstein, in his 1949 book "Autobiographical Notes" (Open
Court, 1999, Centennial Edition), the budding physicist began questioning
the behavior of light when he was just 16 years old. In a thought
experiment as a teenager, he wrote, he imagined chasing a beam of light.

Classical physics would imply that as the imaginary Einstein sped up to
catch the light, the light wave would eventually come to a relative speed
of zero — the man and the light would be moving at speed together, and he
could see light as a frozen electromagnetic field. But, Einstein wrote,
this contradicted work by another scientist, James Clerk Maxwell, whose
equations required that electromagnetic waves always move at the same speed
in a vacuum: 186,282 miles per second (300,000

Instead, Einstein recounted, he sought a unified theory that would make the
rules of physics the same for everyone, everywhere, all the time.

This, wrote the physicist, led to his eventual musings on the theory of
special relativity, which he broke down into another thought experiment: A
person is standing next to a train track comparing observations of a
lightning storm with a person inside the train. And because this is
physics, of course, the train is moving nearly the speed of light.

Einstein imagined the train at a point on the track equally between two
trees. If a bolt of lightning hit both trees at the same time, the person
beside the track would see simultaneous strikes. But because they are
moving toward one lightning bolt and away from the other, the person on the
train would see the bolt ahead of the train first, and the bolt behind the
train later.

Einstein concluded that simultaneity is not absolute, or in other words,
that simultaneous events as seen by one observer could occur at different
times from the perspective of another. It's not lightspeed that changes, he
realized, but time itself that is relative. Time moves differently for
objects in motion than for objects at rest. Meanwhile, the speed of light,
as observed by anyone anywhere in the universe, moving or not moving, is
always the same.

WHAT DOES E = MC^2 MEAN?

One of the most famous and well-known equations in all of human history, E
= mc^2, translates to "energy is equal to mass times the speed of light
squared." In other words, wrote PBS Nova, energy (E) and mass (m) are
interchangeable. They are, in fact, just different forms of the same thing.

But they're not easily exchanged. Because the speed of light is already an
enormous number, and the equation demands that it be multiplied by itself
(or squared) to become even larger, a small amount of mass contains a huge
amount of energy. For example, PBS Nova explained, "If you could turn every
one of the atoms in a paper clip into pure energy — leaving no mass
whatsoever — the paper clip would yield [the equivalent energy of] 18
kilotons of TNT. That's roughly the size of the bomb that destroyed
Hiroshima in 1945."

TIME DILATION

One of the many implications of Einstein's special relativity work is that
time moves relative to the observer. An object in motion experiences time
dilation, meaning that when an object is moving very fast it experiences
time more slowly than when it is at rest.

But at speeds approaching the speed of light, the effects of time dilation
could be much more apparent. Imagine a 15-year-old leaves her high school
traveling at 99.5% of the speed of light for five years (from the teenage
astronaut's perspective). When the 15-year-old got back to Earth, she would
have aged those 5 years she spent traveling. Her classmates, however, would
be 65 years old — 50 years would have passed on the much slower-moving
planet.

GPS devices work by calculating a position based on communication with at
least three satellites in distant Earth orbits. Those satellites have to
keep track of incredibly precise time in order to pinpoint a location on
the planet, so they work based on atomic clocks. But because those atomic
clocks are on board satellites that are constantly whizzing through space
at 8,700 mph (14,000 km/h), special relativity means that they tick an
extra 7 microseconds, or 7 millionths of a second, each day, according to
American Physical Society publication Physics Central. In order to maintain
pace with Earth clocks, atomic clocks on GPS satellites need to subtract 7
microseconds each day.

With additional effects from general relativity (Einstein's follow-up to
special relativity that incorporates gravity), clocks closer to the center
of a large gravitational mass like Earth tick more slowly than those
farther away. That effect adds microseconds to each day on a GPS atomic
clock, so in the end engineers subtract 7 microseconds and add 45 more back
on. GPS clocks don't tick over to the next day until they have run a total
of 38 microseconds longer than comparable clocks on Earth.

SPECIAL RELATIVITY AND QUANTUM MECHANICS

Special relativity and quantum mechanics are two of the most widely
accepted models of how our universe works. But special relativity mostly
pertains to extremely large distances, speeds and objects, uniting them in
a "smooth" model of the universe. Events in special (and general)
relativity are continuous and deterministic, wrote Corey Powell for The
Guardian, which means that every action results in a direct, specific and
local consequence. That's different from quantum mechanics, [KR atomic
jumping] Powell continued: quantum physics are "chunky," with events
occurring in jumps or "quantum leaps" that have probabilistic outcomes, not
definite ones.

Researchers uniting special relativity and quantum mechanics — the smooth
and the chunky, the very large and the very small — have come up with
fields like relativistic quantum mechanics and, more recently, quantum
field theory to better understand subatomic particles and their
interactions.

Researchers striving to connect quantum mechanics and general relativity,
on the other hand, consider it to be one of the great unsolved problems in
physics. For decades, many viewed string theory to be the most promising
area of research into a unified theory of all physics. Now, a host of
additional theories exist. For example, one group proposes space-time loops
to link the tiny, chunky quantum world with the wide relativistic universe.
