Newtonian limits of warp drive spacetimes

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2009-11-10 v3

Abstract

We find a class of warp drive spacetimes possessing Newtonian limits, which we then determine. The same method is used to compute Newtonian limits of the Schwarzschild solution and spatially flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmological models.
