Black Holes: Gravitational Field, Black Holes: General Relativity

Scientific paper

Einstein's general theory of relativity predicts a curious paradox: in the fantastically strong gravitational field of a black hole, centrifugal force may be directed toward - not away from - the center of circular motion. By investigating the behavior of light beams in such regions, theorists have discovered a new topsy-turvy world of "Alice in Wonderland" physics in which in and out are as relative as up and down.
