We show that the relativistic perihelion advance in a weak spherically symmetric gravitational field is completely accounted for by Abramowicz's expression for the centrifugal force. This explanation for the effect relies on a single, well-defined prescription, and is much simpler than others which have been suggested in the literature.

Abstract
We show that the relativistic perihelion advance in a weak spherically symmetric gravitational field is completely accounted for by Abramowicz's expression for the centrifugal force. This explanation for the effect relies on a single, well-defined prescription, and is much simpler than others which have been suggested in the literature.File in questo prodotto:
