基于真空（时空度规）工程的先进空间推进
Advanced Space Propulsion Based on Vacuum (Spacetime Metric) Engineering
摘要：
在远程空间探索的高级规划中，一个重要的主题是空的空间本身（量子真空或时空度量）可能被设计为未来的空间飞行器提供能量/推力。虽然影响深远，但这样的提议在现代物理理论中有着坚实的基础，因此，物质/真空相互作用可能被设计用于太空飞行应用的可能性并没有被先验地排除。作为例子，理论物理学的当前发展涉及诸如曲速驱动器、可穿越的虫洞和时间机器等主题，这些主题提供了真空工程的可能性。我们在这里提供了从一个广泛的角度来看的物理和相关/工程的时空度规的后果。
英文摘要：
A theme that has come to the fore in advanced planning for long-range space exploration is the concept that empty space itself (the quantum vacuum, or spacetime metric) might be engineered so as to provide energy/thrust for future space vehicles. Although far-reaching, such a proposal is solidly grounded in modern physical theory, and therefore the possibility that matter/vacuum interactions might be engineered for space-flight applications is not a priori ruled out. As examples, the current development of theoretical physics addresses such topics as warp drives, traversable wormholes and time machines that provide for such vacuum engineering possibilities. We provide here from a broad perspective the physics and correlates/consequences of the engineering of the spacetime metric.
