Observers and Splitting Structures in Relativistic Electrodynamics
by Bernhard Auchmann, Stefan Kurz
Publisher: arXiv 2014
Number of pages: 93
Description:
We introduce a relativistic splitting structure as a means to map fields and equations of electromagnetism from curved four-dimensional space-time to three-dimensional observer's space. We focus on a minimal set of mathematical structures that are directly motivated by the language of the physical theory.
