Resumen o descripción

The purpose of this paper is to get second-order

gravitational equations, a correction made to Jefimenko’s

linear gravitational equations. These linear equations were

first proposed by Oliver Heaviside in [1], making an analogy

between the laws of electromagnetism and gravitation. To

achieve our goal, we will use perturbation methods on Einstein field equations. It should be emphasized that the resulting system of equations can also be derived from Logunov’s

non-linear gravitational equations, but with different physical

interpretation, for while in the former gravitation is considered as a deformation of space-time as we can see in [2–5], in the latter gravitation is considered as a physical tensor field

in the Minkowski space-time (as in [6–8]). In Jefimenko’s

theory of gravitation, exposed in [9,10], there are two kinds

of gravitational fields, the ordinary gravitational field, due

to the presence of masses, at rest, or in motion and other

field called Heaviside field due to and acts only on moving

masses. The Heaviside field is known in general relativity as

Lense-Thirring effect or gravitomagnetism (The Heaviside

field is the gravitational analogous of the magnetic field in the

electromagnetic theory, its existence was proved employing

the Gravity Probe B launched by NASA (See, for example,

[11,12]). It is a type of gravitational induction), interpreted

as a distortion of space-time due to the motion of mass distributions, (see, for example [13,14]). Here, we will present our second-order Jefimenko equations for gravitation and its solutions.
