Two-body interactions through tachyon exchange

Двухчастичные взаимодействия через обмен тахионом

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

Due to its relevance for the possible applications to particle physics and for causality problems, we thoroughly analyse in this paper the kinematics of (classical) tachyon exchange between two bodiesA, B, for all possible relative velocities. In particular, the two casesu·V≶c 2 are carefully investigated, whereu, V are the bodyB and tachyon speeds relative toA, respectively.

Riassunto

A causa della sua possibile rilevanza per le applicazioni alla fisica delle particelle e ai problemi causali, in questo articolo si analizza dettagliatamente la cinematica dello scambio di un tachione tra due corpiA, B, per tutte le velocità relative possibili. In particolare si studiano accuratamente i due casiu·V≶c 2, doveu, V sono rispettivamente le velocità del corpoB e del tachione rispetto adA.

Резюме

Исходя из возможных применений к физике частиц и проблемам причинности, мы проводим анализ кинематики (классического) обмена тахионами между двумя теламиA, B, для всех возможных относительных скоростей.B частности, исследуются два случаяu·V≶c 2, гдеu, V скорости телаB и тахиона относительноA.
