Standard emitters (clocks) and calibrated standard emitters (clocks) in spaces with affine connections and metrics

It is shown that the general belief that the frequency and the absolute value of the velocity of periodic signals sent by a standard emitter do not change on the world line of the emitter needs to be revised and new conditions for the existence of a calibrted standard emitter should be taken into account. The notions of a standard clock and of a calibrated standard clock are introduced in a space with affine connections and metrics. The variation of the velocity and of the frequency of a standard clock could be compared with the constant velocity and the constant frequency of a calibrated standard clock along the world line of the observer. This calibrated standard clock is transported by meand of a generalized Fermi-Walker transport along the same world line of the observer. Some remarks about the synchronization of standard clocks in spaces with affine connections and metrics are given. PACS numbers: 95.30.Sf; 04.90.+h; 04.20.Cv; 04.90.+e

Navier-Stokes' equations for radial and tangential accelerations

The Navier-Stokes equations are considered by the use of the method of Lagrangians with covariant derivatives (MLCD) over spaces with affine connections and metrics. It is shown that the Euler-Lagrange equations appear as sufficient conditions for the existence of solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations over (pseudo) Euclidean and (pseudo) Riemannian spaces without torsion. By means of the corresponding (n-1)+ 1 projective formalism the Navier-Stokes equations for radial and tangential accelerations are found.

Variation of the velocity and the frequency of a periodic signal along the world line of the emitter

The variation of the velocity of a periodic signal and its frequency along the world line of a standard emitter (at rest with an observer) are considered in a space with affine connections and metrics. It is shown that the frequency of the emitted periodic signal is depending on the kinematic characteristics of the motion of the emitter in space-time related to its shear and expansion velocities. The same conclusions are valid for a standard clock moving with an observer.

Determination of the velocity of an emitter in spaces with affine connections and metrics

Doppler effect and Hubble effect in different models of space-time related to the space-time velocity of an observer are considered. The Doppler effect and Doppler shift frequency parameter are connected with the kinematic characteristics of the relative velocity and the relative acceleration of the emitter with respect to the observer (detector). The Hubble effect and Hubble shift frequency parameter are considered in analogous way. It is shown that by the use of the variation of the shift frequency parameter during a time period, considered locally in the proper frame of reference of an observer, one can directly determine the radial (centrifugal, centripetal) relative velocity and acceleration as well as the tangential (Coriolis) relative velocity and acceleration of an astronomical object moving relatively to the observer. All results are obtained on purely kinematic basis without taking into account the dynamic reasons for the considered effect. PACS numbers: 98.80.Jk; 98.62.Py; 04.90.+e; 04.80.Cc

Doppler effect and Hubble effect in different models of space-time in the case of auto-parallel motion of the observer

Doppler effect and Hubble effect in different models of space-time in the case of auto-parallel motion of the observer are considered. The Doppler effect and shift frequency parameter are specialized for the case of auto-parallel motion of the observer. The Hubble effect and shift frequency parameter are considered for the same case. It is shown that by the use of the variation of the shift frequency parameter during a time perod, considered locally in the proper frame of reference of an observer, one can directly determine the centrifugal (centripetal) relative velocity and acceleration as well as the Coriolis relative velocity and acceleration of an astronomical object moving relatively to the observer. All results are obtained on purely kinematic basis without taking into account the dynamic reasons for the considered effect. PACS numbers: 98.80.Jk; 98.62.Py; 04.90.+e; 04.80.Cc

Propagation of signals in spaces with affine connections and metrics as models of space-time

The propagation of signals in space-time is considered on the basis of the notion of null (isotropic) vector field in spaces with affine connections and metrics as models of space or of space-time. The Doppler effect is generalized for these types of spaces. The notions of aberration, standard (longitudinal) Doppler effect, and transversal Doppler effect are considered. On their grounds, the Hubble effect appears as Doppler effect with explicit forms of the centrifugal (centripetal) and Coriolis velocities and accelerations. Doppler effect, Hubble effect, and aberration could be used in mechanics of continuous media and in other classical field theories in the same way as the standard Doppler effect is used in classical and relativistic mechanics.

Centrifugal (centripetal) and Coriolis velocities and accelerations in spaces with affine connections and metrics as models of space-time

The notions of centrifugal (centripetal) and Coriolis velocities and accelerations are introduced and considered in spaces with affine connections and metrics used as models of space or of space-time. It is shown that these types of velocities and accelerations are generated by the relative motions between mass elements in a continuous media or of particles. The velocities and accelerations are closely related to the kinematic characteristics of the relative velocity and of the relative acceleration. The relation between the centrifugal (centripetal) velocity and the Hubble law is found. The centrifugal (centripetal) acceleration could be interpreted as gravitational acceleration as it has been done in the Einstein theory of gravitation. This fact could be used as a basis for working out of new gravitational theories in spaces with affine connections and metrics.

Null vector fields in spaces with affine connections and metrics. Doppler's effect, Hubble's effect, and aberration's effect

The notion of null (isotropic) vector field is considered in spaces with affine connections and metrics as models of space or space-time. On its basis the propagation of signals in space-time is considered. The Doppler effect is generalized for these types of spaces. The notions of standard (longitudinal) Doppler effect and transversal Doppler effect are introduced. On their grounds, the Hubble effect and the aberration effect appear as Doppler effects with explicit forms of the centrifugal (centripetal) and Coriolis velocity vector fields in spaces with affine connections and metrics. The upper limit of the value of the general observed shift parameter z, generated by both the effects, based on the Doppler effects, is found to be z = 1.41. Doppler's effects, Hubble's effect, and aberration's effect could be used in mechanics of continuous media and in other classical field theories in the same way as the standard Doppler effect is used in classical and relativistic mechanics.

Lagrangian theory for perfect fluids

The theory of perfect fluids is reconsidered from the point of view of a covariant Lagrangian theory. It has been shown that the Euler-Lagrange equations for a perfect fluid could be found in spaces with affine connections and metrics from an unconstrained variational principle by the use of the method of Lagrangians with covariant derivatives (MLCD) and additional conditions for reparametrizations of the proper time of the mass elements (particles) of the perfect fluid. The last conditions are not related to the variational principle and are not considered as constraints used in the process of variations. The application of the whole structure of a Lagrangian theory with an appropriate choice of Lagrangian invariant as the pressure of the fluid shows that the Euler-Lagrange equations with their corresponding energy-momentum tensors lead to Navier-Stokes' equation identical with the Euler equation for a perfect fluid in a space with one affine connection and metrics. The Navier-Stokes equations appear as higher order equations with respect to the Euler-Lagrange equations.

Flows and particles with centrifugal (centripetal) and Coriolis' velocities and accelerations. Hubble's law in spaces with affine connections and metrics

The notions of centrifugal (centripetal) and Coriols' velocities and accelerations are introduced and considered in spaces with affine connections and metrics as velocities and accelerations of flows of mass elements (particles) moving in space-time. It is shown that these types of velocities and accelerations are generated by the relative motions between the mass elements. They are closely related to the kinematic characteristics of the relative velocity and the relative acceleration. The null (isotropic) vector fields are considered and their relations with the centrifugal (centripetal) velocity are established. The centrifugal (centripetal) velocity is found to be in connection with the Hubble law and the generalized Doppler effect in spaces with affine connections and metrics. The centrifugal (centripetal) acceleration could be interpreted as gravitational acceleration as it has been done in the Einstein theory of gravitation. This fact could be used as a basis for working out of new gravitational theories in spaces with affine connections and metrics.

Flows and particles with shear-free and expansion-free velocities in (L^-_n,g)- and Weyl's spaces

Conditions for the existence of flows with non-null shear-free and expansion-free velocities in spaces with affine connections and metrics are found. On their basis, generalized Weyl's spaces with shear-free and expansion-free conformal Killing vectors as velocity's vectors of spinless test particles moving in a Weyl's space are considered. The necessary and sufficient conditions are found under which a free spinless test particle could move in spaces with affine connections and metrics on a curve described by means of an auto-parallel equation. In Weyl's spaces with Weyl's covector, constructed by the use of a dilaton field, the dilaton field appears as a scaling factor for the rest mass density of the test particle.

Mechanics of Continuous Media in $(\bar{L}_{n},g)$-Spaces. III. Relative Accelerations

Basic notions of continuous media mechanics are introduced for spaces with affine connections and metrics. The physical interpretation of the notion of relative acceleration is discussed. The notions of deformation acceleration, shear acceleration, rotation (vortex) acceleration, and expansion acceleration are introduced. Their corresponding notions, generated by the torsion and curvature, are considered. A classification is proposed for auto-parallel vector fields with different kinematic characteristics. Relations between the kinematic characteristics of the relative acceleration and these of the relative velocity are found. A summary of the introduced and considered notions is given. A classification is proposed related to the kinematic characteristics of the relative velocity and the kinematic characteristics related to the relative acceleration.

Conformal derivative and conformal transports over spaces with contravariant and covariant affine connections and metrics

Transports preserving the angle between two contravariant vector fields but changing their lengths proportional to their own lengths are introduced as ''conformal'' transports and investigated over spaces with contravariant and covariant affine connections (whose components differ not only by sign) and metrics. They are more general than the Fermi-Walker transports. In an analogous way as in the case of Fermi-Walker transports a conformal covariant differential operator and its conformal derivative are defined and considered over the above mentioned spaces. Different special types of conformal transports are determined inducing also Fermi-Walker transports for orthogonal vector fields as special cases. Conditions under which the length of a non-null contravariant vector field could swing as a homogeneous harmonic oscillator are established. The results obtained regardless of any concrete field (gravitational) theory could have direct applications in such types of theories. PACS numbers: 04.90.+e; 04.50.+h; 12.10.Gq; 02.40.Vh
