Beyond second-order convergence in simulations of binary neutron stars in full general-relativity
Despite the recent rapid progress in numerical relativity, a convergence order less than the second has so far plagued codes solving the Einstein–Euler system of equations. We report simulations of the inspiral of binary neutron stars in quasi-circular orbits computed with a new code employing high-order, high-resolution shock-capturing, finite-differencing schemes that, for the first time, go ...
متن کاملSpecial Relativity at Action in the Universe
Nature succeeds in accelerating extended and massive objects to relativistic velocities. Jets in Active Galactic Nuclei and in galactic superluminal sources and gamma–ray bursts fireballs have bulk Lorentz factors from a few to several hundreds. A variety of effects then arises, such as the beaming of the produced radiation, light aberration, time contraction and the Doppler frequency shift. I ...
متن کاملSpecial Relativity at the Quantum Scale
It has been suggested that the space-time structure as described by the theory of special relativity is a macroscopic manifestation of a more fundamental quantum structure (pre-geometry). Efforts to quantify this idea have come mainly from the area of abstract quantum logic theory. Here we present a preliminary attempt to develop a quantum formulation of special relativity based on a model that...
متن کاملDepartures from Special Relativity beyond Effective Field Theories
Lorentz invariance is a fundamental ingredient of our present description of Nature, which is given in terms of relativistic quantum field theories (RQFTs). However, the idea that Lorentz invariance might be an approximate, low-energy, symmetry, has begun to emerge in the last few years essentially from quantum gravity developments1, but also from results in the fields of string theory 2, nonco...
متن کاملSpecial Relativity
References 43 Index 45 ii Preface For me, the wonder of special relativity lies in its successful prediction of interesting and very nonintuitive phenomena from simple arguments with simple premises. These notes have three (perhaps ambitious) aims: (a) to introduce undergraduates to special relativity from its founding principle to its varied consequences, (b) to serve as a reference for those ...
