Astrophysicist from the Russian University of Friendship of Peoples (RUDN) proposed a new theory of gravity, in which the law of preserving energy-icpulse is not mandatory. This discovery may mean a revision of the basic principles of the general theory of relativity.
According to the general theory of relativity developed by Einstein, the space-time sparkles under the influence of the mass and energy described by the tensor of energy-pulse. In classical physics, the law of energy conservation is considered unchanged. However, this law is not always applicable, especially with high energies, where mathematical inconsistencies arise.
In the new theory proposed by the Faslollahs, a graduate student of the Institute of Gravity and Cosmology of RUDNN, a approach based on the Gibbs-Düghemum equation, which describes changes in the thermodynamic system, is used. This theory includes two new terms: one describes the temperature and entropy, and the other – a charge and interaction.
Faslollahs demonstrates that its gravitational model is consistent with various environmental conditions and can be used in astrophysical and astronomical studies. As an example, he applied a new theory for calculating two stages of development of the universe: inflationary expansion and accelerated expansion. The results are consistent with experimental observations.
“For example, we studied spherically symmetrical solutions and the evolution of the Universe in the early and late periods. The model did not show any discrepancies with Einstein’s gravity in a vacuum,” says Faslolahi.
This discovery can have far-reaching consequences for understanding gravity and the structure of the universe, especially in conditions of extremely high energies, for example, near black holes. The study was published in the European Physical Journal c.
