Discovering Relativity for Yourself
The biggest difficulty, conceptually, is perhaps to convince yourself that the slope
of a world line has no significance - just as speed, as an absolute, has no
significance. The relation between the slopes of two world lines corresponds to
the ...

A First Course in String Theory
The path traced out by the particle in spacetime is called the world-line of the
particle. Even a static particle traces a line in spacetime since time always flows.
A physically consistent action must yield Lorentz invariant equations of motion.

Ansgar Bredenfeld. Projection of World Line: w/t = {dgtt',s;T E w\l/ = t} indicates a
projection of a world line w at time t (or simply, time slice of a world at time t) . w/9
= {d,Qitt,S;T £ w\6' = 8} indicates a projection of a world line w about a certain ...

Einstein's Space-Time: An Introduction to Special and ...
Equation (4.7) can be integrated to get the time read by a clock fixed to the
particle (proper time along the world line of a particle) = ∫ dt √ 1− ut2 c2 (4.8)

Hyperspace: A Scientific Odyssey Through Parallel Universes, ...
This means that the faster we travel, the more our world line deviates from the
vertical. (Notice that there is also a “forbidden region” in the diagram that our
world line can't enter because we would have to be going faster than the speed
of light.) ...

The Search for a Naturalistic
World View:
A timelike world line is a one-dimensional curve in space-time, any two distinct
points P and P' of which have the property of being in the interior of the light cone
of the other, and such that there exists no space-time point whose forward light ...

General Relativity: 1972 Lecture Notes
8 that, at each point of a world-line there is associated a vector Aa, the
acceleration vector of the world-line, which is orthogonal to the four-velocity at
that point. We now want to relate this (physically measured) quantity to some
geometrical ...

Gravity from the Ground Up: An Introductory Guide to Gravity ...
The world line of a body contains the information needed to compute its speed.
Unlike the path in ordinary space, the world line tells us where the body is at any
time, so one can read off its speed. The diagram shows that the speed between ...
