  • Derivation of Newton's Law of Gravitation

    by Balungi Francis ...
    In Newton's view, all objects exert a force that attracts other objects. That universal law of gravitation worked pretty well for predicting the motion of planets as well as objects on Earth and it's still used, for example, when making the calculations for a rocket launch. But unfortunately it cannot be derived from first principles.While Newton was able to formulate his law of gravity in his ... Read more

  • Introduction To Covariant Quantum Gravity And Asymptotic Safety, An

    by Roberto Percacci ...
    Series Book 3 - 100 Years Of General Relativity
    This book covers recent developments in the covariant formulation of quantum gravity. Developed in the 1960s by Feynman and DeWitt, by the 1980s this approach seemed to lead nowhere due to perturbative non-renormalizability. The possibility of non-perturbative renormalizability or 'asymptotic safety', originally suggested by Weinberg but largely ignored for two decades, was revived towards the end ... Read more
