We propose a simple experiment to measure the speed of gravity in the laboratory. A moving body induces changes in the gravitational field that travel to the detector with a finite time delay. Moving two bodies causes changes to the gravitational field. These changes can add or subtract, and observing this interference allows for the measurement of the speed of gravity.

This chapter embarks on a study of the two-body problem in general relativity. In other words, it seeks to describe the motion of two compact, self-gravitating bodies which are far-separated and moving slowly. It limits the discussion to corrections proportional to v2 ~ m/R, the so-called post-Newtonian or 1PN corrections to Newton’s universal law of attraction. The chapter first examines the gravitational field, that is, the metric, created by the two bodies. It then derives the equations of motion, and finally the actual motion, that is, the post-Keplerian trajectories, which generalize the post-Keplerian geodesics obtained earlier in the chapter.

AbstractThis paper focuses on the finite-time stability of linear stochastic fractional-order systems with time delay for $\alpha \in (\frac{1}{2},1)$ α ∈ ( 1 2 , 1 ) . Under the generalized Gronwall inequality and stochastic analysis techniques, the finite-time stability of the solution for linear stochastic fractional-order systems with time delay is investigated. We give two illustrative examples to show the interest of the main results.
