The expanding worlds of general relativity
TL;DR: In the early 20th century, Minkowski, Mathematicians and the Mathematical Theory of Relativity (MTL) were involved in the search for Gravitational Absorption in the early Twentieth Century.
Journal ArticleDOI
Field equations in teleparallel space–time: Einstein's Fernparallelismus approach toward unified field theory
TL;DR: In this article, a historical account of the Fernparallelismus approach toward a unified field theory of gravitation and electromagnetism is given, where the authors claim that it was the failure to find and justify a uniquely determined set of acceptable field equations that eventually led to Einstein's abandoning this approach.
Journal ArticleDOI
The origin of gravitational lensing: a postscript to Einstein's 1936 Science paper.
TL;DR: Reconstruction of some of Einstein's research notes dating back to 1912 reveals that he explored the possibility of gravitational lensing 3 years before completing his general theory of relativity.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Relativity of Discovery: Hilberts First Note on the Foundations of Physics
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyse the note and travaux de recherche of D. Hilbert on les fondements de la physique par rapport a la theorie de la relativite and les equations de la gravitation d'Einstein.
Journal ArticleDOI
Field equations in teleparallel spacetime: Einstein's Fernparallelismus approach towards unified field theory
TL;DR: In this article, a historical account of Einstein's 'Fernparallelismus' approach towards a unified field theory of gravitation and electromagnetism is given, where a space-time characterized by a curvature-free connection in conjunction with a metric tensor field, both defined in terms of a dynamical tetrad field, is investigated.
