چکیده
Abstract. The Tolman–Oppenheimer–Volkov [TOV] equation constrains the internal structure of general relativistic static perfect fluid spheres. We develop several “solution generating” theorems for the TOV, whereby any given solution can be “deformed” to a new solution. Because the theorems we develop work directly in terms of the physical observables — pressure profile and density profile — it is relatively easy to check the density and pressure profiles for physical reasonableness. This work complements our previous article [Phys. Rev. D71 (2005) 124307; gr-qc/0503007] wherein a similar “algorithmic” analysis of the general relativistic static perfect fluid sphere was presented in terms of the spacetime geometry — in the present analysis the pressure and density are primary and the spacetime geometry is secondary. In particular, our “deformed” solutions to the TOV equation are conveniently parameterized in terms of δρc and δpc, the shift in the central density and central pressure.

We discuss the fate of initial states of the cat type for the damped harmonic oscillator, mostly employing a linear version of the stochastic Schrödinger equation. We also comment on how such cat states might be prepared and on the relation of single realizations of the noise to single runs of experiments. Typeset using REVTEX 1

We respond to a recent paper by Rindler on the " Anti–Machian " nature of the Lense–Thirring effect. We remark that his conclusion depends crucially on the particular formulation of Mach's principle used.

We present an exact solution to the problem of the relativistic motion of 2 point masses in (1 + 1) dimensional dilaton gravity. The motion of the bodies is governed entirely by their mutual gravitational influence, and the spacetime metric is likewise fully determined by their stress-energy. A Newtonian limit exists, and there is a static gravitational potential. Our solution gives the exact H...

In the present work, we prove the validity of two theorems on null-paths in a version of absolute parallelism geometry. A version of these theorems has been originally established and proved by Kermak, McCrea and Whittaker (KMW) in the context of Riemannian geometry. The importance of such theorems is their use, in applications, to derive a general formula for the red-shift of spectral lines co...
