Perihelion advance for orbits with large eccentricities in the Schwarzschild black hole

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

We deduce a new formula for the perihelion advance of a test particle in the Schwarzschild black hole by applying a newly developed non-linear transformation within the Schwarzschild space-time. By this transformation we are able to apply the well-known formula valid in the weak-field approximation near infinity also to trajectories in the strong-field regime near the horizon of the black hole.
