Pp-wave spacetime — In general relativity, the pp wave spacetimes, or pp waves for short, are an important family of exact solutions of Einstein s field equation. These solutions model radiation moving at the speed of light. This radiation may consist of:*… … Wikipedia
Dirac bracket — The Dirac bracket is a generalization of the Poisson bracket developed by Paul Dirac to correctly treat systems with second class constraints in Hamiltonian mechanics and canonical quantization. It is an important part of Dirac s development of… … Wikipedia
3-sphere — Stereographic projection of the hypersphere s parallels (red), meridians (blue) and hypermeridians (green). Because this projection is conformal, the curves intersect each other orthogonally (in the yellow points) as in 4D. All curves are circles … Wikipedia
Goldstone boson — In particle and condensed matter physics, Goldstone bosons or Nambu–Goldstone bosons are bosons that appear necessarily in models exhibiting spontaneous breakdown of continuous symmetries (cf. spontaneously broken symmetry). They were discovered… … Wikipedia
Monochromatic electromagnetic plane wave — In general relativity, the monochromatic electromagnetic plane wave spacetime is the analog of the monochromatic plane waves known from Maxwell s theory. The precise definition of the solution is a bit complicated, but very instructive. Any exact … Wikipedia
Congruence (manifolds) — In the theory of smooth manifolds, a congruence is the set of integral curves defined by a nonvanishing vector field defined on the manifold. Congruences are an important concept in general relativity, and are also important in parts of… … Wikipedia
