Strong and weak gravity: A context for unbiased birefringence

Сильная и слабая гравитация: Контекст неискаженного двойного лучепреломления

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento B (1971-1996)

Summary

We give our reasons for dealing with a 2-metric relativity. Then we give all of the constant solutions for a 5-parameter family of Lagrangian models. These include solutions for which the two null cones do not coincide.

Riassunto

Si forniscono i motivi che inducono a trattare di una relatività a 2 metriche. Quindi si danno tutte le soluzioni costanti per una famiglia di modelli lagrangiani a 5 parametri. Queste comprendono soluzioni per cui i due coni nulli non coincidono.

Резюме

Мы высказываем аргументы в пользу рассмотрения 2-метрической относительности. Затем мы приводим все постоянные решения для 5-параметрического семейства моделей Лагранжианов. Приведенные решения включают решения, для которых два нулевых конуса не совпадают.
