Key Points
- The Maximum Tension Principle suggests that the value of the maximal tension in classical General Relativity is c^4/4G.
- The principle imposes an upper bound on the tension or force between two bodies in General Relativity.
- The principle has a simple and natural form in four spacetime dimensions.
- The tension in the gravitational field at the Newtonian level is unbounded, but in General Relativity, there is a natural limit due to gravitational collapse and black hole formation.
- The Principle of Maximum Tension is related to the tension in string theory, and there is a classical relation between G, the classical string coupling constant α', and the velocity of light c.

The principle of maximum tension in General Relativity sets an upper limit on the force between two bodies as Fg = c^4/4G, applicable to bodies with positive masses.
39 word summary
The principle of maximum tension in classical General Relativity imposes an upper limit on the tension or force between two bodies, which is Fg = c^4/4G. This principle applies to two bodies (possibly black holes) of positive masses M
201 word summary
The principle of maximum tension in classical General Relativity is discussed by G.W. Gibbons. This principle imposes an upper limit on the tension or force between two bodies, which cannot exceed Fg = c^4/4G. The number
The Maximum Tension Principle in General Relativity states that there is a natural limit due to gravitational collapse and black hole formation. The principle holds true when considering two bodies (possibly black holes) of positive masses M1 and M2 separated by a distance
In the study of General Relativity, the Maximum Tension Principle relates to the net Newtonian force between two rods. By using the contour integral for the metric function, it is found that the values are connected to the force. In the case of
In classical string theory, there is a natural unit of force or tension called the energy per unit length of the string. This tension is denoted as Fs and is given by Fs = 1 / (2πα'), where α' is the
The excerpt discusses various aspects of general relativity and string theory. It starts by noting that the non-relativistic scaling is equivalent to Kepler's Third Law. The Nambu-Goto action of a classical string is introduced, and it is shown
