Did Einstein Get It Right? A Centennial Assessment.
The article explores the empirical foundations of Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity by addressing some of the early challenges and uncertainties in testing the theory. It provides some selected highlights of the high-precision tests that have been done and indicates opportunities for fu...

It provides some selected highlights of the high-precision tests that have been done and indicates opportunities for future tests of general relativity. The discussion's focus is around the four main phenomena associated with the spacetime geometry central to the concept of Einstein's theory. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y dt: @attributes: year: 2017 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
