Title Hamiltonian Field Theory in the Radiating Regime Author(s) Chrusciel, Piotr T;Jezierski, Jacek;Kijowski, Jerzy Publication Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2002. Description VI, 174 p : online resource Abstract Note The purpose of this monograph is to show that, in the radiation regime, there exists a Hamiltonian description of the dynamics of a massless scalar field, as well as of the dynamics of the gravitational field. The authors construct such a framework extending the previous work of Kijowski and Tulczyjew. They start by reviewing some elementary facts concerning Hamiltonian dynamical systems and then describe the geometric Hamiltonian framework, adequate for both the usual asymptotically-flat-at-spatial-infinity regime and for the radiation regime. The text then gives a detailed description of the application of the new formalism to the case of the massless scalar field. Finally, the formalism is applied to the case of Einstein gravity. The Hamiltonian role of the Trautman--Bondi mass is exhibited. A Hamiltonian definition of angular momentum at null infinity is derived and analysed ISBN,Price 9783540456049 Keyword(s) 1.
