four-vector 

  • can be transformed by Lorentz transformation
  • examples
    • space-time (ct,x,y,z)
    • four momentum (m,mv_1,mv_2,mv_3)
    • electromagnetic field

 

 

review of Maxwell's equation

 

 

Lorentz transformation and Maxwell's equation

 

 

 

Vacuum field equation and gravitational field equation

  • gravitational potentail satisfies the following equation (Poisson's equation)
    \(\nabla^2 \phi = - 4 \pi G \rho\)
  • \(\rho\) is the matter density
  • in relativity theory, the metric plays the role of gravitational potential

 

 

energy-momentum tensor

  • also called as stress-energy tensor
  • describe the densities and flows of energy and momentum
  • all forms of mass-energy can be sources of gravitational fields
  • the stress-energy tensor \(T_{\mu \nu}\) acts as a source of the gravitational field

 

 

 

relativistic Vacuum field equation

 

 

 

relativistic matter field equation

  • Einstein field equation
    \(R_{\mu \nu} - {1 \over 2}g_{\mu \nu}\,R + g_{\mu \nu} \Lambda = {8 \pi G \over c^4} T_{\mu \nu}\)
