This book presents the derivation of a method for how relativistic celestial mechanics can be done.The result is in a number of ways very close to the Schwarzschild solution to the field equations buteasier insofar that that no Riemannian geometry has to be introduced. This book replaces theauthor's earlier book High velocity physics (Höghastighetsfysik in swedish). The section about theMichelson-Morley experiment has been dropped while the section on gravity is heavily expanded.The reader probably should have some basic knowledge in vector calculus in order to fullycomprehend the material.
