Accelerating Universe: Theory versus Experiment
by

Publisher: arXiv
Number of pages: 43

Description:
We present gravitation as a theory in which the coordinates are distances and velocities between galaxies. We show that there are three possibilities for the Universe to expand: decelerating, constant and accelerating, and it is shown that the Universe is now in the latter phase.

Book cover: Gravitation: from Newton to EinsteinGravitation: from Newton to Einstein
by - arXiv.org
The main goal of this document is to propose a big picture of gravitation, where Einstein's relativity arises as a natural increment to Newton's theory. It is designed for students who do not necessarily have prior knowledge about relativity.
