Orbits in general relativity: The Jacobian elliptic functions

Орбиты в общем теории относительности: эллиптические функции Якоби

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento B (1971-1996)

Summary

The Jacobian elliptic functions are applied to the motion of monzero-rest-mass particles in the Schwarzschild geometry. The bound and unbound trajectories are analysed together with their classical and special-relativity limits.

Riassunto

Le funzioni ellittiche jacobiane sono applicate al movimento delle particelle con massa in riposo diversa da zero nella geometria di Schwarzschild. Le traiettorie legate e non legate sono analizzate insieme con i loro limiti classici e di relatività ristretta.

Резюме

Для описания движения частиц с отличной от нуля массой покоя в геометрии Шварцшильда применяются эллиптические функции Якоби. Ограниченные и неограниченные траектории анализируются вместе с их классическими пределаами и пределами в специальной теории относительности.
