Extended Theories of Gravity

TL;DR: Extended Theories of Gravity as discussed by the authors can be considered as a new paradigm to cure shortcomings of General Relativity at infrared and ultraviolet scales, which is an approach that, by preserving the undoubtedly positive results of Einstein's theory, is aimed to address conceptual and experimental problems recently emerged in astrophysics, cosmology and High Energy Physics.

First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. I. The Shadow of the Supermassive Black Hole

Kazunori Akiyama, +406 more
TL;DR: In this article, the Event Horizon Telescope was used to reconstruct event-horizon-scale images of the supermassive black hole candidate in the center of the giant elliptical galaxy M87.

Black holes in higher dimensional space-times

TL;DR: In this paper, a new family of solutions were found which describe spinning black holes in higher dimensional space-times, which are similar to the familiar Kerr and Schwarzschild metrics which are recovered for N = 3.

Theory and Experiment in Gravitational Physics

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide a complete treatment of techniques for analyzing gravitation theory and experience, taking into account the Dicke framework, basic criteria for the viability of a gravitation theories, experimental tests of the Einstein equivalence principle, Schiff's conjecture, and a model theory devised by Lightman and Lee (1973).

Quasinormal modes of black holes and black branes

TL;DR: Quasinormal modes are eigenmodes of dissipative systems as discussed by the authors, and they serve as an important tool for determining the near-equilibrium properties of strongly coupled quantum field theories, such as viscosity, conductivity and diffusion constants.
