general theory of relativity

基本解釋

In his general theory of relativity, published in 1916, Einstein showed that gravity too can slow time.
在他1916年發(fā)表的廣義相對論中，愛因斯坦証明了重力可以減慢時間。
His general theory of relativity has proved accurate in predicting how light travels from some of the most distant galaxy clusters in the universe, according to new measurements.
他的廣義相對論被証實是正確的，在一項新的測試中，它精確地預(yù)測了在宇宙裡一些最爲(wèi)遙遠星系團那裡光的運行。
Einstein's general theory of relativity contends that a slight difference in the force of gravity at two different places causes clocks in those places to tick at different rates.
愛因斯坦的廣義相對論認爲(wèi)地球上兩個不同位置上重力的細微差別，會導(dǎo)致這兩個位置上的時鍾以不同的速率來記錄時間。

Einstein predicted the distortion of light in this way in 1915, as part of his general theory of relativity.

The SKA will join the hunt for gravitational waves—ripples in the structure of space predicted by Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity.

Assuming this principle (without proving it) allowed Einstein to develop the general theory of relativity in 1916, and to describe gravity in purely geometric terms.

the theory of gravitation, developed by Einstein in 1916, extending the special theory of relativity to include acceleration and leading to the conclusion that gravitational forces are equivalent to forces caused by acceleration
