Results from an almost twenty years study of radiometric data from Pioneer 10/11, Galileo and Ulysses spacecraft indicate an anomalous time depending blueshift1, 2 which bares hardly prosaic explanations. Local manifestation of the expansion of the universe or new force terms are not favored either by the observational data. So, we explore the possibility that the reported anomaly, referred to as the "Pioneer anomaly", does not result from a real change in velocity. It turns out that the main Pioneer anomaly may be looked at as a new validation of general relativity (GR) in the weak field and low velocity limit on account of the "machian" behavior of quintessence like dark energy.

To construct the geometry in nonflat spaces in order to understand nature has great importance in terms of applied science. Finsler geometry allows accurate modeling and describing ability for asymmetric structures in this application area. In this paper, two-dimensional Finsler space metric function is obtained for Weibull distribution which is used in many applications in this area such as wind speed modeling. The metric definition for two-parameter Weibull probability density function which has shape (k) and scale (c) parameters in two-dimensional Finsler space is realized using a different approach by Finsler geometry. In addition, new probability and cumulative probability density functions based on Finsler geometry are proposed which can be used in many real world applications. For future studies, it is aimed at proposing more accurate models by using this novel approach than the models which have two-parameter Weibull probability density function, especially used for determination of wind energy potential of a region.

In the general picture of high order theories of gravity, recently, the R-1 theory has been analyzed in two different frameworks. In this letter a third context is added, considering an explicit coupling between the R-1 function of the Ricci scalar and the matter Lagrangian. The result is a non-geodesic motion of test particles which, in principle, could be connected with Dark Matter and Pioneer anomaly problems.

Using Chern's method of transgression, the Euler class of a compact orientable Riemann–Finsler space is represented by polynomials in the connection and curvature matrices of a torsion-free connection. When using the Chern connection (and hence the Christoffel–Levi–Civita connection in the Riemannian case), this result extends the Gauss–Bonnet formula of Bao and Chern to Finsler spaces whose indicatrices need not have constant volume.

A central assumption in general relativity is that the underlying geometry of spacetime is pseudo-Riemannian. Given the recent attempts at generalizations of general relativity, motivated both by theoretical and observational considerations, an important question is whether the spacetime geometry can also be made more general and yet still remain compatible with observations? Here I briefly summarize some earlier results which demonstrate that there are special classes of Finsler geometry, which is a natural metrical generalization of the Riemannian geometry, that are strictly compatible with the observations regarding the motion of idealised test particles and light rays. I also briefly summarize some recent attempts at employing Finsler geometries motivated by more recent developments such as those in String theory, whereby Lorentz invariance is partially broken.
