Extending Special Relativity to Superluminal Motion
Experiments done with single photon in the early 1990’s produced a surprising result: that single photon pass through a photon tunnel barrier with a group velocity faster than the vacuum speed of light. Recently, a series of experiments revealed that electromagnetic wave was able to travel at a group velocity faster than c. These phenomena have been observed in dispersive media. We think all pa...
متن کاملExtending the Relativity of Time
More than 100 years ago, Einstein’s special relativity demonstrated that time is a relative notion. The observed rate of a moving clock differs from the rate of a stationary clock. In fact, the observed rate depends on the clock’s velocity. All admissible velocities are bounded by the speed of light. These predictions of special relativity have been verified experimentally in several different ...
متن کاملOn the Probabilistic Compatibility of Special Relativity and Quantum Mechanics
In this paper we introduce the three main notions of probability used by physicists and discuss how these are to be used when invoking spacelike separated observers in a relativistic format. We discuss a standard EPRB experiment and concentrate upon problems of the interpretation of probabilities. We promote a particularly conservative interpretation of this experiment (which need not invoke an...
متن کاملOptical interpretation of special relativity and quantum mechanics
Abstract: The present work shows that through a suitable change of variables relativistic dynamics can be mapped to light propagation in a non-homogeneous medium. A particle’s trajectory through the modified space-time is thus formally equivalent to a light ray and can be derived from a mechanical equivalent of Fermat’s principle. The similarities between light propagation and mechanics are the...
متن کاملIs Relativistic Quantum Mechanics Compatible with Special Relativity?
The transformation from a time-dependent random walk to quantum mechanics converts a modi fied Bessel function into an ordinary one together with a phase factor e,ir/2 for each time the electron flips both direction and handedness. Causality requires the argument to be greater than the order of the Bessel function. Assuming equal probabilities for jumps ± 1 , the normalized modified Bessel fun...
