Einstein's R0^0^R^{\hat{0} \hat{0}} equation for non-relativistic sources derived from Einstein's inertial motion and the Newtonian law for relative acceleration

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

With Einstein's inertial motion (free-falling and non-rotating relative to gyroscopes), geodesics for non-relativistic particles can intersect repeatedly, allowing one to compute the space-time curvature R0^0^R^{\hat{0} \hat{0}} exactly. Einstein's R0^0^R^{\hat{0} \hat{0}} for strong gravitational fields and for relativistic source-matter is identical with the Newtonian expression for the relative radial acceleration of neighboring free-falling test-particles, spherically averaged.--- Einstein's field equations follow from Newtonian experiments, local Lorentz-covariance, and energy-momentum conservation combined with the Bianchi identity.
