The velocity field distribution for rigid motions in the Born?s sense applied to Post-Newtonian Relativistic Celestial Mechanics is examined together with its compatibility with the Newtonian distribution.

Similarity:

We consider a body immersed in a perfect gas and moving under the action of a constant force. Body and gas are in thermal equilibrium. We assume a stochastic interaction body/medium: when a particle of the medium hits the body, it is absorbed and immediately re-emitted with a Maxwellian distribution. This system gives rise to a microscopic model of friction. We study the approach of the body velocity to the limiting velocity V ∞ and prove that, under suitable smallness assumptions,...

On a two-body problem of classical relativistic electrodynamics.

Similarity:

Formulating the two-body problem of classical relativistic electrodynamics in terms of action at a distance and using retarded potential, the equations of one-dimensional motion are functional differential equations of the retarded type. For this kind of equations, in general it is not enough to specify instantaneous data to specify unique trajectories. Nevertheless, Driver (1969) has shown that under special conditions for these electrodynamic equations, there exists an unique solution...
