Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity is based on two postulates: Inertial frames in uniform relative motion are equivalent and the speed of light is the same in all of them.
This book, first appearing in German in 2004 under the title Spezielle Relativit盲tstheorie f眉r Studienanf盲nger, offers access to the special theory of relativity for readers with a background in mathematics and physics comparable to a high school honors degree. All mathematical and physical ...
Einstein's special theory of relativity is based on the idea of reference frames. A reference frame is simply "where a person (or other observer) happens to be standing". You, at this moment, are probably sitting at your computer. That is your current reference frame. You feel like you ...
but applied it to Lorentz's Electromagnetic Theory of the Electron, rather than simply to Newton's mechanics, to develop his theory of special and general relativity which gave rise to his geometry of space-time, his 'curvature of space' that ...
The differences can be calculated, consistently, with special relativity. There's no paradox when you actually apply the physics to the problem (and I realize you aren't claiming a paradox!) ... it is simply a case of getting one's head around how relativity works. Cheers -- sylas Ju...
Going back to the original EPR paradox: Bell already explained (Bertlmann's socks) that there is no paradox, in the sense of no contradiction with relativity theory. The two particles' momentum and position had presumably both been pre-determined at the moment of emission of the particles, ...
This is one reason that investigations are important in science.Albert Einstein, who developed the theory of relativity, arrived at this theory through mathematics The accuracy of his mathematics was later tested through investigation.Einstein’s ideas are shown to be correct.A scientist uses many to...
The RVM evolution of a cosmological Universe is usually formulated on a Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker (FLRW) background space-time metric, with scale factora(t), in the context of General Relativity (GR). Let us, however, note that one may also obtain an effective RVM evolution in...
(2) Einstein’s general relativity (GR), which is an example of what people now call “classical field theory.” GR predicts gravity, while the standard model predicts almost everything else now known, with two main exceptions: (1) there are some strange phenomena called “superweak ...
