  World line - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Note that the orbit of the Earth is (almost) a circle in space, but its worldline is a helix in spacetime.
Worldline, worldsheet, and world volume, as they are derived from particles, strings, and branes.
So far a worldline (and the concept of tangent vectors) is defined in spacetime even without a definition of a metric.

 Station Information - Worldline
Instructions on commensurate relations between worldlines or their members, and results of their evaluations, are collectively referred to as Physics.
In special relativity and general relativity, a worldline is the set of spacetime events corresponding to a single particle or a negligibly small object.
A worldline which is closed and timelike is called a closed timelike curve or CTC.

 Citebase - Worldline Supersymmetry and Dimensional Reduction   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
For any worldline reformulation of a quantum field theory for Dirac fermions, this paper shows that worldline supersymmetry may generally be enforced by the vanishing of the commutator of the Dirac operator with the worldline Hamiltonian.
The action of supersymmetry on the worldline Lagrangian may not, however, be written in terms of the variations on the fields in the usual way, except when the spinning particle couples just to a one-form.
By reduction from six to four dimensions of the worldline reformulation for a spinning particle coupled to a three-form, corrections to the superworldline Lagrangian are presented which are needed in order to reproduce correct field theory results from worldline perturbation theory in an unambiguous way.

 John Titor 12.2000
On my worldline in 2011, the United States is in the middle of a civil war that has dramatic effects on most of the other Western governments.
Worldline changes are not exponential; they act more like chaotic attractors with varying effect depending on their size and location.
Even on this worldline, there is a great deal of evidence to support the fact that sea levels did change radically in isolated areas worldwide.

Take heart, on some worldline, you have succeeded and all time travelers are dead by the hand of your followers and thinking or talking about it is a crime.
The measurement for worldline divergence is an observation variable isolated to the distortion unit.
In time travel talk, worldlines are used as a way to describe and separate the experiences of a time traveler because various laws of special relativity appear to breakdown and can't be defined on a single worldline.

I like the incredible freedom you have on this worldline but I see it as a trap and I fear the cost is the loss of your sense of connection with family and community.

The worldline of a second observer shall be identical with the inclined t'-axis.
That planet (the worldline of which is not shown in figure 7) is at rest relative to earth.
The worldline of the spaceship has been chosen to be vertical; hence the worldline of planet earth is inclined (the wordline of the distant planet would be a parallel to the worldline of planet earth).

 Accelerating in Place
The lapse of proper time along a worldline at a fixed radial positions near a gravitating body of mass m is lower than for worldines further from the body.
If we consider two neighboring stationary worldlines, separated by an incremental radial distance dr, the lapse of proper time dt for a given incremental lapse of coordinate time dt is less for the inner worldline than for the outer worldline, as illustrated below.
In order for a worldline at t = dt to be perpendicular to this locus, it must have the perpendicular slope, which is the same quantity converted from units of sec/meter to units of meter/sec.

Thus the straight worldline between two events has the largest proper time, and all other curved worldlines connecting the two events have smaller proper times.
Each dot on a worldline is a birthday party, so the middle quint is 10 years old when they all rejoin each other, while the other quints are 6 and 8 years old.
Thus the straight worldline between two events can be found by maximizing the proper time, just as the straight line between two points can be found by minimizing the length.

 Principle of Least Action Interactive
The worldline you have constructed satisfies the condition of least action for this special case of a worldline of four straight segments equally spaced along the time axis.
Of course even a worldline consisting of many straight segments is not the same as a continuous worldline, made up of an infinite number of event-points.
In brief, Feynman is saying that if the entire worldline has minimum action compared with possible nearby worldlines, then every small segment along the worldline must have minimum action compared to possible nearby segments.

To that person, your worldline is slanted to the right since you are receding from him (from his view).
On a spacetime diagram, the worldlines of the inertial observers are non-horizontal straight lines.
What Galileo's Principle of Relativity does is that it establishes a sort-of democracy among all inertial observers in the sense that each inertial observer could view the world from the vantage point where he is at rest.

The value of this document could well be the reader's recognition of the fact that armed resistance against the military and police forces of the United States government would be futile, since according to Titor the rurals will never win the conflict except by default after nuclear war with billions of casualties worldwide.
John Titor himself stated that he allowed for the possibility we might NOT have a US civil war in our future, however he thought it was very probable there would be a civil war in the United States, and that it was unlikely we could do anything to stop it from developing.
Titor said he felt there was a chance that we might not have his worldline’s civil war future but he thought it was not probable we would avoid it.

 JOHN TITOR VALIDITY TEST BASED ON PREDICTION OF CIVIL WAR BY 2004-2005   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Titor's time machine operates it navigates through these alternate realities, and time travelers try to stay as close to possible to their original worldline, the success of their efforts being measured in percent divergence from their original worldline.
In that case it will remain possible (though still not probable) to prevent nuclear war, but only if we are able to face the evidence and respond appropriately so that things can be turned around from their present course.
Or let's say if divergence between worldlines delayed the predicted 2004-2005 civil war until 2006 or 2007 we would certainly have to question the accuracy of the 2015 date, and some might question if any of Mr.

 Extension of worldline computational algorithms for QCD to open fermionic contours   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
The worldline casting of a gauge field system with spin-1/2 matter fields has provided a, particle-based, first quantization formalism in the framework of which the Bern-Kosower algorithms for efficient computations in QCD acquire a simple interpretation.
This paper extends the scope of applicability of the worldline scheme so as to include open fermionic paths.
It is also demonstrated that in this framework the sole agent of dynamics operating in the system is the Wilson line (loop) operator, which makes a natural entrance in the worldline action; everything else is associated with geometrical properties of particle propagation, of which the most important component is Polyakov's spin factor.
