The Weak Field Approximation of General Relativity and the Problem of Precession of the Perihelion for Mercury
In this paper we represent a different approach to the calculation of the perihelion shift than the one presented in common text books. We do not rely on the Schwarzschild metric and the Hamilton–Jacobi technique to obtain our results. Instead we use a weak field approximation, with the advantage th...
