Achronal vs. Spacetime
Difference Between Achronal and Spacetime
Achronaladjective
(physics) Describing a set of points in a spacetime, no two of which have timelike separation
Spacetimenoun
The four-dimensional continuum of one temporal and three spatial coordinates in which any event or physical object is located.
Spacetimenoun
The four-dimensional continuum of the three spatial dimensions plus time. Category:en:Higher-dimensional geometry
An event is a point in spacetime, specified by the coordinates x, y, z, and t.Spacetimenoun
(physics) An n-dimensional continuum consisting of dimensions of both space and time. Normally spacetime is considered as having 4 dimensions (x, y, z, t), but higher-dimensional spacetimes are often encountered in theoretical physics, e.g. the 5-dimensional spacetime of Kaluza-Klein theory or the 11 dimensions of spacetime in M-theory.
a Minkowski spacetimea 5-dimensional spacetimeSpacetimenoun
(relativity) A specific region of the universe with mathematically different properties than the surrounding spacetime. Synonymous with "metric" within the context of general relativity.
a Schwarzschild spacetimea Reissner-Nordström spacetime
