Spin interaction of non-relativistic neutrons with an ultrashort laser pulse
Peter Christian Aichelburg, Christian Spreitzer
The non-relativistic Pauli equation is used to study the interaction of slow neutrons with a short magnetic pulse. In the extreme limit, the pulse is acting on the magnetic moment…
Curvature without metric: the Penrose construction for half-flat pp-waves
Peter C. Aichelburg, Herbert Balasin
We derive the Penrose data for half-flat pp-waves and extend his original construction for the Weyl spinor of plane waves in terms of this data.
Is the equivalence principle useful for understanding general relativity?
Peter C. Aichelburg
The Equivalence Principle (EP) is at the heart of General Relativity (GR), tested in many aspects. It is often used to discuss qualitatively the influence of gravity on physical ph…
Scattering of Classical and Quantum Particles by Impulsive Fields
Herbert Balasin, Peter C. Aichelburg
We investigate the scattering of classical and quantum particles in impulsive backgrounds fields. These fields model short outbursts of radiation propagating with the speed of ligh…
Tails for the Einstein-Yang-Mills system
Michael Pürrer, Peter C Aichelburg
We study numerically the late-time behaviour of the coupled Einstein Yang-Mills system. We restrict ourselves to spherical symmetry and employ Bondi-like coordinates with radial co…
Spectral Properties and Linear Stability of Self-Similar Wave Maps
Roland Donninger, Peter C. Aichelburg
We study co--rotational wave maps from --Minkowski space to the three--sphere . It is known that there exists a countable family of self--similar solutions. W…
