Functions§

beta
Compute β = v/c (velocity as a fraction of the speed of light).
brachistochrone_peak_velocity
Peak velocity at the midpoint of a brachistochrone transfer.
brachistochrone_times
Compute proper time for a brachistochrone (constant-acceleration) transfer.
classical_delta_v
Classical (Newtonian) Tsiolkovsky ΔV.
delta_v_correction_fraction
Fractional correction between relativistic and classical ΔV.
effects_summary
Summary of relativistic effects for a given velocity.
kinetic_energy_correction_factor
Relativistic kinetic energy factor relative to classical.
lorentz_factor
Compute the Lorentz factor γ = 1 / √(1 - β²), where β = v/c.
relativistic_delta_v
Relativistic rocket equation (constant-thrust, constant-exhaust-velocity).
time_dilation_constant_v
Time dilation: compute proper time (ship time) given coordinate time.
time_dilation_loss
Proper time lost due to time dilation at constant velocity.
