Einstein Metric
The Einstein Metric is a mathematical concept used in the field of general relativity, formulated by Albert Einstein. It describes the geometric properties of spacetime, which combines the three dimensions of space with the dimension of time. This metric helps to understand how mass and energy influence the curvature of spacetime, leading to the phenomenon of gravity.
In the Einstein Metric, distances and angles are defined in a way that accounts for the effects of gravity on the fabric of spacetime. This framework allows scientists to model the behavior of objects in strong gravitational fields, such as those near black holes or neutron stars.
