摘要：

在附录B中，有一个关于边缘效应的建议，这可能对太阳物理学有重要意义。在他的《相对论原理》中，剑桥大学出版社，1922年（多佛，2004年再版）。N.怀特海没有使用“弯曲”的时空，他推导出了与爱因斯坦相同的红移、近日点推进和光偏转的值。辛格阐述了怀特海的论点在现代符号，使其更容易为当代物理学家，但也获得了夏皮罗延迟电磁辐射的引力场。辛格比较了爱因斯坦的广义相对论和怀特海的相对论，发现两种理论的观测证据同样有力。他提到怀特黑德的预测肢体效应评论说，追求其后果将需要知识的质量管理并不存在于1922年。可能这是因为物理学家自1919年以来对GRT的痴迷。

英文摘要：

In Appendix B, there is a proposal about the Limb Effect which could be of great significance for Solar Physics. In his PRINCIPLE OF RELATIVITY, Cambridge University Press, 1922 (republished Dover, 2004) A. N. Whitehead, making no use of ''curved'' space-time, derived the same values as Einstein for the red-shift, perihelion advance and the deflection of light. Synge expounds Whitehead's arguments in modern notation making it more accessible for contemporary Physicists but also obtains the Shapiro retardation of electromagnetic radiation by a gravitational field. Synge compares Einstein's GRT and Whitehead's PR, finding the observational evidence equally strong for both theories. He alluded to Whitehead's prediction of a Limb Effect remarking that to pursue its consequences would require a knowledge of QM which did not exist in 1922. Possibly this was not done because of physicist's Obsession with GRT since 1919.
