The electrical power consumed by typical magnetic hard disk drives (HDD) not only increases linearly with the number of spindles but, more significantly, it increases as very fast power-laws of speed (RPM) and diameter. Since the…
We consider the statistical mechanics of a general relativistic one-dimensional self-gravitating system. The system consists of $N$-particles coupled to lineal gravity and can be considered as a model of $N$ relativistically interacting…
In the one dimensional case, velocity addition in Special Relativity and in Newtonian Mechanics, respectively, are each a commutative group operation, and the two groups are isomorphic. There are infinitely many such isomorphisms, each…
Newton second law of dynamics is a law of motion but also a useful definition of force (F=MA) or inertial mass (M=F/A), assuming a definition of acceleration and parallelism of force and acceleration. In the special theory of relativity,…
The effective dynamics of a slow classical system coupled to a fast chaotic environment is described by means of a Master equation. We show how this approach permits a very simple derivation of geometric magnetism.
''Warp drive'' spacetimes are useful as ''gedanken-experiments'' and as a theoretician's probe of the foundations of general relativity. Applying linearized gravity to the weak-field warp drive, i.e., for non-relativistic warp-bubble…
Should nature be supersymmetric, then it will be described by Quantum Supergravity at least in some energy regimes. The currently most advanced description of Quantum Supergravity and beyond is Superstring Theory/M-Theory in 10/11…
There is marginal evidence that the quintessential form of matter responsible for the acceleration of the universe observed today has ratio between pressure and energy density $w<-1$. Such a regime, called superacceleration, cannot be…
Representing the relativistic physical fields as sections of the Clifford Bundle (or of the Spin-Clifford Bundle) of Minkowski spacetime we show that all the relativistic wave equations satisfied by these fields possess solutions traveling…
We study the acceleration and collisions of rigid bodies in special relativity. After a brief historical review, we give a physical definition of the term `rigid body' in relativistic straight line motion. We show that the definition of…
This paper addresses congested transport, which can be described, at macroscopic scales, by a continuity equation with a pressure variable generated from the hard-congestion constraint (maximum value of the density). The main goal of the…
In this work we study rapidly rotating stars by considering the Rastall theory of gravity. We obtain and solve the equations by numerical methods for two usual parametrization of polytropic stars. Then the mass-radius relations, moments of…
We investigate the occurrence of divergences in maximal supergravity in various dimensions from the point of view of supersymmetry constraints on the U-duality invariant threshold functions defining the higher derivative couplings in the…
The principal subject of this thesis is the gravitational two-body problem in the extreme-mass-ratio regime---that is, where one mass is significantly smaller than the other---in the full context of our contemporary theory of gravity,…
The study of the evolution of the dynamics of a massive or massless particle shows that in special relativity theory, the energy is not conserved. From the law of evolution of the velocity over time of a particle subjected to a constant…
We derive the relativistic velocity addition law, the transformations of electromagnetic fields and space-time intervals by examining the drift velocities in a crossed electromagnetic field configuration. The postulate of the light velocity…

We modify the four-dimensional N=1 linearized supergravity in a way that components in each superfield are completely identified with fields in the full superconformal formulation. This identification makes it possible to use both…
