Speed Limits in General Relativity [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Some standard results on the initial value problem of general relativity in matter are reviewed. These results are applied first to show that in a well defined sense, finite perturbations in the gravitational field travel no faster than light, and second

Weak energy condition violation and superluminal travel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Recent solutions to the Einstein Field Equations involving negative energy densities, i.e., matter violating the weak-energy-condition, have been obtained, namely traversable wormholes, the Alcubierre warp drive and the Krasnikov tube.

Newtonian limits of warp drive spacetimes

open access: yes, 2009
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.Comment: 9 ...

A Superluminal Subway: The Krasnikov Tube [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The ``warp drive'' metric recently presented by Alcubierre has the problem that an observer at the center of the warp bubble is causally separated from the outer edge of the bubble wall.

Quantum Tunneling and Quasinormal Modes in the Spacetime of Alcubierre Warp Drive

open access: yes, 2017
In a seminal paper, Alcubierre showed that Einstein's theory of general relativity appears to allow a super-luminal motion. In the present study, we use a recent eternal-warp-drive solution found by Alcubierre to study the effect of Hawking radiation ...

Analyzing warp drive spacetimes with Warp Factory

open access: yesClassical and Quantum Gravity
Abstract The field of warp research has been dominated by analytical methods to investigate potential solutions. However, these approaches often favor simple metric forms that facilitate analysis but ultimately limit the range of exploration of novel solutions.

Capillary-wave warp-drive

open access: yesTechnical Physics Letters, 2022
The generation of surface water flow in channels with sources and resonators of capillary oscillations is detected and investigated. Moving devices with a capillary-wave accelerator of the surface fluid flow are demonstrated. The surface flow of liquid in the channel is generated due to the local deformation of the liquid surface by capillary ...

Inhibition of serum and glucocorticoid regulated kinase-1 as novel therapy for cardiac arrhythmia disorders

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Alterations in sodium flux (INa) play an important role in the pathogenesis of cardiac arrhythmias and may also contribute to the development of cardiomyopathies.

Abutting Objects Warp the Three-Dimensional Curvature of Modally Completing Surfaces

open access: yesi-Perception, 2020
Binocular disparity can give rise to the perception of open surfaces or closed curved surfaces (volumes) that appear to vary smoothly across discrete depths.
