How to differentiate a term with respect to metric
ok we can write for first example:##\frac {\partial (g^{ca}g^{db}F_{cd}F_{ab})}{\partial g^{ef}}## = ##\frac{\partial g^{ca}}{\partial g^{ef}}g^{db}F_{cd}F_{ab}+\frac{\partial g^{db}}{\partial g^{ef}}g^{ca}F_{cd}F_{ab}+\frac{\partial F_{cd}}{\partial g^{ef}}g^{ca}g^{db}F_{ab}+\frac{\partial...- the_doors

How to differentiate a term with respect to metric
for example if ##N_{\mu}(x^\nu)## be unit time like dynamical four velocity, what's happening ? i don't know explicit form of ##N_{\mu}##.- the_doors

How to differentiate a term with respect to metric
Homework Statement for example: ##\frac{\partial(F^{ab}F_{ab})}{ \partial g^{ab}} ## where F_{ab} is electromagnetic tensor. or ##\frac{\partial N_{a}}{\partial g^{ab}}## where ##N_{a}(x^{b}) ## is a vector field.

Varying the action with respect to metric
Homework Statement i want to find the variation of this action with respect to ## g^{\mu\nu}## , where ##N_\mu(x^\nu)## is unit time like four velocity and ##\phi## is scalar field. ##I_{total}=I_{BD}+I_{N}## ## I_{BD}=\frac{1}{16\pi}\int dx^4\sqrt{g}\left\{\phi...- the_doors

Trigonometric and hyper. functions approx in large small argumnt
hello guys , i'm looking for approximation of trigonometric and hyperbolic functions for small and large argument, is it correct to say sin(x)=x and tg(x)=x and tgh(x)=x and cos(x) = 1 and cosh(x)=1 and coth(x)=1/x for small x what about large x ? what can we say about exponential function...- the_doors

Two identical particles with spin 1/2
two particles can be on first energy level with up and down spin direction so the space wave function is symmetric and spin wave function is in singlet state . what is wrong with this ?- the_doors

Two identical particles with spin 1/2
hello guys , in this problem from zettili quantum mechanics that i attach , i think something is wrong , first the problem said two particles with spin 1/2 but didn't mention that the system is in singlet state or triplet state , so if the system be in triplet state then our spatial wave...- the_doors

S_z matrix in s_y basis: three methods and three results
the problem is exactly here, with permutation : s_z in s_y basis : s_x but with unitary transformation or rotating method s_z in s_y basis : s_y . i mean why we have 2 results ? at last which of the results are correct ?- the_doors

S_z matrix in s_y basis: three methods and three results
but in this sulotion set i attached , he consider -pi/2 . and in the third method , we get s_x , so finally which is correct ? s_x or s_y ? Thank you- the_doors

What Is the Probability of Measuring Spin-up for Electron in State Alpha?
hello guys Suppose an electron is in the spin state alpha=(a,b). if s_y is measured, what is the probability of result h/2 ? s_y eigenvector for +h/2 is |y+>=1/sqrt(2) (1,i)) so the probability is (<y+|alpha>)^2 . but in the solution i attached , the solution is different ! I'm confused...- the_doors

S_z matrix in s_y basis: three methods and three results
Hello guys. when i write s_z matrix in s_y basis with unitary transformation i get s_y but in second method when i rotate s_z about x-axis ( - pi/2 ) to get s_z in s_y basis , i get -s_y ! and if we consider cyclic permutation, s_z becomes s_x. i am totally confused! three methods and three...- the_doors
