Abstract

We simplify the warp drive space-time so that it becomes stationary and the distorsion becomes one-dimensional and static. We use this simplified warp drive space-time as a background for a photon field. We shall especially use the Drummond\&Hathrell action in order to investigate the velocity effects on photons in this background. Finally, we discuss the limitations of this model.
