Gravitational Radiation

Open publisher page 19 citations

Abstract

Einstein’s general theory of relativity predicts that changes in the gravitational field are propagated with the speed of light, and that certain kinds of sources may radiate away energy and momentum as gravitational waves. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
