Who had read articles in the Guardian claiming that Eric Weinstein found a theory of Maldacena, Susskind: any entanglement is a wormhole of a sort. B) Principle of original horizontality. A) Electrons are directly affected by the strong nuclear force. Instead, let me mention that we're probably victims of some bad habits and ultimately invalid lore related to the way how we think about certain issues in general relativity. Crothers: Black Holes, General Relativity and Newtonian Gravitation. Which of the following is NOT true? Posted on November 28, 2012 by B Talbott. On Friday, I received an irritated message from Mel B. General relativity is composed of the equations that are locally valid, .. If gravity did not affect space and time, Gravity Probe B's gyroscopes would point in the same direction forever while in orbit. One of the most spectacular and successful ideas of the 20 Century was Einstein's General Relativity, or the idea that matter and energy determines the curvature of spacetime, and the curvature of spacetime in turn determines how gravitation works. "The space-time around Earth appears to be distorted just as general relativity predicts," says Stanford University physicist Francis Everitt, principal investigator of the Gravity Probe B mission. In particular, white dwarfs — like Sirius B, illustrated above — condense a Sun's worth of mass into a volume of only the Earth, creating spacetime that's curved 100 times more severely than at our Sun's photosphere.
