gravitational parameter
1Standard gravitational parameter — In astrodynamics, the standard gravitational parameter mu of a celestial body is the product of the gravitational constant G and the mass M::mu=GM The units of the standard gravitational parameter are km3s 2mall body orbiting a central bodyUnder… …
2Gravitational constant — The gravitational constant G is a key quantity in Newton s law of universal gravitation. The gravitational constant, denoted G, is an empirical physical constant involved in the calculation of the gravitational attraction between objects with… …
3Gravitational two-body problem — The gravitational two body problem concerns the motion of two point particles that interact only with each other, due to gravity. This means that influences from any third body are neglected. For approximate results that is often suitable. It… …

6Gravitational lensing formalism — In general relativity, a point mass deflects a light ray with impact parameter b by an angle hat{alpha} = frac{4GM}{c^2b}. A naïve application of Newtonian gravity can yield exactly half this value, where the light ray is assumed as a massed… …
7Immirzi parameter — The Immirzi parameter (also known as the Barbero Immirzi parameter) is a numerical coefficient appearing in loop quantum gravity, a nonperturbative theory of quantum gravity. The Immirzi parameter measures the size of the quantum of area in… …
