Equations of motion in the null formalism

  • 1. Syracuse Univ., N.Y. (USA). Dept. of Physics

Description

An outline is presented for an approach to a two-body problem. The method uses null coordinates attached to one body and an expansion away from flat space. Unfortunately, the method fails to exhibit the Newtonian interaction between two particles. Therefore, no detailed calculations are given. (author)
