The Use Of Maple Platform For The Study Of Geodisc Motion On Curved Spacetimes, Dumitru N. Vulcanov, Valentina D. Wheeler

Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences - Papers: Part A

The article illustrates the graphical study of geodesic motion on curved space-times (mainly exact solutions of Einstein equations) using the symbolic, numerical and graphical computation facilities of Maple platform. The example of null geodesics on Schwarzschild solution is completely processed. The geodesic curves are plotted directly using DEtools package in Schwarzschild coordinates.
