Curvature Invariants for the Alcubierre and Natário Warp Drives

Curvature Invariants for the Alcubierre and Natário Warp Drives

A process for using curvature invariants is applied to evaluate the metrics for the Alcubierre and the Natário warp drives at a constant velocity. Curvature invariants are independent of coordinate bases, so plotting these invariants will be free of coordinate mapping distortions. As a consequence,...
