[astro-ph/9906333] Numerical Hydrodynamics In Special Relativity
This review is concerned with a discussion of numerical methods for the solution of the equations of special relativistic hydrodynamics
http://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/9906333

Extractions: This review is concerned with a discussion of numerical methods for the solution of the equations of special relativistic hydrodynamics (SRHD). Particular emphasis is put on a comprehensive review of the application of high-resolution shock-capturing methods in SRHD. Results obtained with different numerical SRHD methods are compared, and two astrophysical applications of SRHD flows are discussed. An evaluation of the various numerical methods is given and future developments are analyzed. References and citations for this submission:

The Theory Of Special Relativity
A simple criticism of the theory of special relativity. Bruce Harvey s Alternative Physics site. special relativity. Still controversial.
http://users.powernet.co.uk/bearsoft/SpRel.html

Extractions: Nearly a hundred years after its conception, Einstein's theory of special relativity is still surrounded by controversy and disbelief among those outside the physics fraternity. The reasons for this are many. Not least is the poor way in which the theory is taught and expounded. The news group sci.physics.relativity abounds with arguments, which centre around the use of certain equations and the results obtained from them, missing the real issues. Such arguments will never come to a successful outcome and future generations of protagonists and advocates will still be repeating the same old dogmas, half truths and misconceptions for decades to come. When Einstein published his first paper on relativity in 1905, it contained very little new material. The equations which we associate with relativity had all been previously derived by Lorentz on the assumption that there exists a background, called the aether, through which light travels at a constant speed. Lorentz was concerned with the fact that in spite of the movement of the earth through this background, the laws of physics remained constant. The equations he developed, known as the Lorentz transforms, showed how physical processes taking place in the aether resulted in the same laws of physics applying in the laboratory in spite of its possible motion through the aether. Poincare showed that any two observers each moving with their own distinct velocity through the aether and making their own observations would be able to relate them using Lorentz transforms.
Concept Of Space And Time In Special Relativity
This java applet invites you to the world of space and time in special relativity.
http://webphysics.davidson.edu/Applets/TaiwanUniv/relativity/relativity.html

Extractions: Space and Time in Special Relativity The special theory of relativity is the result of two postulates: The speed of light in empty space is the same for all inertial frames. From the above two postulates, our understanding of space and time has to be modified. This java applet invites you to the world of space and time in special relativity. There are two devices that utilize photons to measure time differences (some kind of clock). There is no relative motion between the two devices. Now, change the relative velocity from the selections (

Extractions: (gravitational waves disturbing a black hole, from NCSA This set of lecture notes on general relativity has been expanded into a textbook, Spacetime and Geometry: An Introduction to General Relativity , available for purchase online or at finer bookstores everywhere. About 50% of the book is completely new; I've also polished and improved many of the explanations, and made the organization more flexible and user-friendly. The notes as they are will always be here for free. These lecture notes are a lightly edited version of the ones I handed out while teaching Physics 8.962, the graduate course in General Relativity at MIT , during Spring 1996. Each of the chapters is available here as uncompressed postscript, but see next paragraph. (Need a postscript previewer ?) Constructive comments and general flattery may be sent to me via the address below. Dates refer to the last nontrivial modification of the corresponding file (fixing typos doesn't count).

General Relativity Simulation Contest
The purpose of this Contest is to prove General relativity using a (simple) algorithm.
http://users.pandora.be/nicvroom/contest.htm

Extractions: The Contest consist of the following task: Write one general purpose program (any programming language will do) which simulates the movement of n objects over a certain period of time. The simulation method used (algorithms), should be based on the Rules of General Relativity. The program should be able to simulate and demonstrate the following examples: Forward movement (perihelion shift) of the planet Mercury (43 arc sec angle) around the Sun. The bending of light around the Sun (1.75 sec). The movement of a binary star system. The stars should spiral together. A clock in a space ship around the Earth. Twin paradox (SR). i.e. at least two clocks should be included. The behaviour of black holes. The results of the simulation should match actual observations. For the rules of General Relativity see the following: General Relativity with John Baez

Extractions: I lost my mind the second I was born! - RMT THE SH RIN KI N G T HEORY THE UNIVERSAL THEORY OF RELATIVITY (Universal Relativity) By Roland Michel Tremblay Maintenant en Français! The Relative Universe (Science Fiction novel based on these theories) Note: If you are new to the concepts of relativity, super strings and quantum mechanics, please bear in mind that these are my own theories, they do not reflect what is said today in science. This is a work in progress, some points are wrong. Only with your comments and questions can I develop this further: rm@crownedanarchist.com . My Shrinking Theory is practically stated in the book The Elegant Universe by Brian Greene, page 249 (Two Interrelated Notions of Distance in String Theory). Note that none of my ideas need String Theories, I do not talk about many different dimensions or strings. The most important part to be read on this page is called (Consequences of the Shrinking Theory and the Universal Relativity) and it comes after the following 8 points and the three images that follow.

Extractions: (All orders are now being shipped from Raleigh, North Carolina) Cornelius Lanczos (1893-1974) was a physicist and mathematician who had a profound impact on the foundations of twentieth century science. His papers cover a vast array of disciplines, including general relativity, quantum mechanics, scientific computation, applied mathematics and numerical analysis. This Collection provides documentation (a) that Lanczos was indeed one of the twentieth century's most versatile and innovative scientific minds, and (b) that many of Lanczos's ideas are still of interest to present-day research in physics and applied mathematics. This Collection will be of special interest to theoretical physicists, numerical analysts and science historians. The Cornelius Lanczos Collected Published Papers with Commentaries (Lanczos Collection or CLCPPC herein-after referred to as the Collection) represents the second phase of a two-part celebration of the life and work of Cornelius Lanczos. The first phase of this celebration occurred in December 1993 when North Carolina State University's College of Physical and Mathematical Sciences hosted the Cornelius Lanczos International Centenary Conference.

SIMULATING GENERAL RELATIVITY
Some examples of the phenomena of general relativity are simulated. This provides a graphical sight on the main general relativity concepts. The simulations include solutions in 3D (XY +time) and 4D (XYZ+time) spaces.
http://www.raczynski.com/pn/genrel.htm

Extractions: stanracz@prodigy.net.mx ABSTRACT Some examples of the phenomena of general relativity are simulated. This provides a graphical and quite illustrative sight on the main general relativity concepts. The simulations include solutions in 3D (XY +time) and 4D (XYZ+time) spaces. The solutions are more general than those which can be obtained analytically. For example, the approach to the black hole is simulated not only as a radial particle movement, but as an arbitrary trajectory in the 3D space. The distortion of images of far objects seen through a neighborhood of a black hole is simulated using photon trajectories in 4D space. Also the entrance of an arbitrary trajectory into the horizon of the black hole is simulated both with the coordinate time (seen by the static observer) and with the proper time (clock) of the moving body. Time distortion at the neighborhood of the black hole is shown as a 3D space-distortion plot. Interesting simulation experiments are also shown for the rotating black hole.
