Some aspects of quantum field theory in a general (i.e. non inertial) frame of Minkowski spacetime are studied. Conditions for the presence of horizons as well as for the modification of the definition of positive energy solutions are…
We consider the static vacuum C metric that represents the gravitational field of a black hole of mass $m$ undergoing uniform translational acceleration $A$ such that $mA<1/(3\sqrt{3})$. The influence of the inertial acceleration on the…
We present an introduction to mass and angular momentum in General Relativity. After briefly reviewing energy-momentum for matter fields, first in the flat Minkowski case (Special Relativity) and then in curved spacetimes with or without…
Besides the defining space-time symmetries (homogeneity and isotropy) of inertial frames, the derivation of Lorentz transformation requires postulating the principle of relativity and the existence of a finite speed limit. In this article,…
The gravitational self-force has thus far been formulated in background spacetimes for which the metric is a solution to the Einstein field equations in vacuum. While this formulation is sufficient to describe the motion of a small object…
In axistationary asymptotically flat spacetimes zero angular momentum observers (ZAMOs) define an absolute standard of non--rotation locally, as can be verified by the absence of any Sagnac effect for these observers. Nevertheless, we argue…
Static observers in curved spacetimes may interpret their proper acceleration as the opposite of a local gravitational field (in the Newtonian sense). Based on this interpretation and motivated by the equivalence principle, we are led to…
It is shown that in the rest frame of the observer in expanding Universe states of particles with negative energy exist.The properties of such states are studied. The comparison with the case of negative energies of particles in black holes…
Examples of axially symmetric solutions to Einstein's field equations are given that exhibit anomalous "negative frame dragging" in the sense that zero angular momentum test particles acquire angular velocities in the opposite direction of…
After a review of the problems induced by the Lorentz signature of Minkowski space-time, like the need of a clock synchronization convention for the definition of 3-space and the complexity of the notion of relativistic center of mass,…
The paper considers a set of equations describing the static isotropic gravity field of a macroscopic body within the framework of the theory of gravity with a constraint. A general approximate solution of these equations is obtained. The…
First, we extend the special relativity into the superluminal case and put forward a superluminal theory of kinematics, in which we show that the temporal coordinate need exchanging with one of the spatial coordinates in a superluminal…
Starting from the classical Newton's second law which, according to our assumption, is valid in any instantaneous inertial rest frame of body that moves in Minkowskian space-time we get the relativistic equation of motion…
From the principle that there is no absolute description of a physical state, we advance the approach according to which one should be able to describe the physics from the perspective of a quantum particle. The kinematics seen from this…
A gravitational field can be seen as the anholonomy of the tetrad fields. This is more explicit in the teleparallel approach, in which the gravitational field-strength is the torsion of the ensuing Weitzenboeck connection. In a tetrad…
In a special class of globally hyperbolic, topologically trivial, asymptotically flat at spatial infinity spacetimes selected by the requirement of absence of supertranslations (compatible with Christodoulou-Klainermann spacetimes) it is…
It is shown that Collas and Klein (ArXiv : 0811.2471 [gr-qc]) wrongly concluded that "negative frame dragging" phenomenon takes place at all finite $r$ and $z$ coordinate values . We argue that a test particle with zero angular momentum…
We consider the nonrelativistic particle moving on noncommutative space-time in the presence of constant force $\vec{F}$. Further, following the paper M. Daszkiewicz, C.J. Walczyk, Phys. Rev. D 77, 105008 (2008); arXiv: 0802.3575 [math-ph],…
The nature of boundedness of orbits of a particle moving in a central force field is investigated. General conditions for circular orbits and their stability are discussed. In a bounded central field orbit, a particle moves clockwise or…
