Relativistic Time of Arrival
نویسنده
چکیده
We propose a covariant algorithm for relativistic ideal measurements and for relativistic continuous measurements, its non-relativistic limit results the algorithm of the Event-Enhanced Quantum Theory. Therefore an additional intrinsic parameter, the proper time, is used. As an application we compute the time of arrival of a particle at a detector and find good agreement between the expected values of the time of arrival for weak detectors and the results of the relativistic point-mechanic over a wide range. For very high momentums there is a small probability for a negative time of arrival, so the expected times are a bit smaller than the results of the relativistic mechanics.

Relativistic Time-of-Arrival and Traversal Time
We compute in a relativistic way the time-of-arrival and the traversal time through a region of a free particle with spin 1 2 . We do this by applying the relativistic extension of the Event-Enhanced Quantum Theory which we have presented in a previous paper. We find a very good coincidence of the results of our formalism and the results obtained by using classical relativistic mechanics. PACS ...
متن کاملGyroharmonic Analysis on Relativistic Gyrogroups
Einstein, M"{o}bius, and Proper Velocity gyrogroups are relativistic gyrogroups that appear as three different realizations of the proper Lorentz group in the real Minkowski space-time $bkR^{n,1}.$ Using the gyrolanguage we study their gyroharmonic analysis. Although there is an algebraic gyroisomorphism between the three models we show that there are some differences between them. Our...
متن کاملCalculation of the relativistic bulk tensor and shear tensor of relativistic accretion flows in the Kerr metric.
In this paper, we calculate the relativistic bulk tensor and shear tensor of the relativistic accretion ows in the Kerr metric, overall and without any approximation. We obtain the relations of all components of the relativistic bulk and shear tensor in terms of components of four-velocity and its derivatives, Christoffel symbols and metric components in the BLF. Then, these components are deri...
متن کاملFermat Principle in Finsler Spacetimes
It is shown that, on a manifold with a Finsler metric of Lorentzian signature, the lightlike geodesics satisfy the following variational principle. Among all lightlike curves from a point q (emission event) to a timelike curve γ (worldline of receiver), the lightlike geodesics make the arrival time stationary. Here “arrival time” refers to a parametrization of the timelike curve γ. This variati...
متن کاملAnalysis of M/G/ 1 queueing model with state dependent arrival and vacation
This investigation deals with single server queueing system wherein the arrival of the units follow Poisson process with varying arrival rates in different states and the service time of the units is arbitrary (general) distributed. The server may take a vacation of a fixed duration or may continue to be available in the system for next service. Using the probability argument, we construct the ...
