[help]how to obtain gravity eqution from gravity field Action S?

In summary, the gravity field Action S is a mathematical representation of the interaction between two objects due to their mass. It is derived from the equation for gravity and takes into account the effects of all masses in a given space. The gravity equation can be obtained by taking the derivative of the gravity field Action S with respect to distance. This allows for more accurate predictions and calculations of the force of gravity between objects. However, the gravity equation derived from the gravity field Action S has limitations and does not account for other forces or the size of objects in real-world scenarios.

could you please tell me how to obtain gravity equation from gravity field Action S as in detail as possible, especially the derivation of calculus of variations?
or you could point out some papers for me,
and thanks very very very very very very very very very much!
p.s. as in detail as possible! thanks!

For a careful treatment, see Chapter 4, Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations of general relativity, of the book A Relativist's Toolkit by Eric Poisson.

1. What is the gravity field Action S?

The gravity field Action S is a mathematical representation of the interaction between two objects due to their mass. It is used to calculate the force of gravity between the objects.

2. How is the gravity field Action S related to the equation for gravity?

The gravity field Action S is derived from the equation for gravity, which is F = G * (m1 * m2)/r^2. The gravity field Action S is a more general form of this equation, taking into account the effects of all masses in a given space.

3. How do I obtain the gravity equation from the gravity field Action S?

The gravity equation can be obtained by taking the derivative of the gravity field Action S with respect to distance. This will result in the equation F = G * (m1 * m2)/r^2, where F is the force of gravity, G is the gravitational constant, m1 and m2 are the masses of the objects, and r is the distance between them.

4. Why is it important to obtain the gravity equation from the gravity field Action S?

Obtaining the gravity equation from the gravity field Action S allows us to make more accurate predictions and calculations regarding the force of gravity between objects. It takes into account the influence of all masses in a given space, rather than just two objects.

5. Are there any limitations to using the gravity equation derived from the gravity field Action S?

While the gravity equation derived from the gravity field Action S is more accurate than the basic equation for gravity, it still has limitations. It does not take into account the effects of other forces, such as electromagnetic or nuclear forces, on the objects. It is also based on the assumption that the objects are point masses, which may not always be the case in real-world scenarios.
