Question

In Schwarzschild spacetime, consider timelike geodesics with $L^2 = 25m^2$ and $L^2 = 15m^2$. (a) Plot the effective potential $V(r)$ (b) For what value of $E$ is there a stable circular orbit? an unstable circular orbit? What is the circumference and period of the orbits? (c) For what values of $E$ is there a bound non-circular orbit?

Step 1

The metric is given by: \[ ds^2 = -\left(1 - \frac{2GM}{c^2r}\right)c^2dt^2 + \frac{dr^2}{1 - \frac{2GM}{c^2r}} + r^2(d\theta^2 + \sin^2\theta d\phi^2) \] where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the central body, c is the speed of light, and r, Show more…
