Special relativity in complex vector algebra
Special relativity is one of the monumental achievements of physics of the 20th Century. Whereas Einstein used a coordinate based approach [1], which obscures important geometric aspects of this fundamental theory, many coordinate free geometric languages have since been developed. In [2], D. Hestenes showed how the ideas of special relativity can be elegantly expressed in space-time algebra. T...

References 43 Index 45 ii Preface For me, the wonder of special relativity lies in its successful prediction of interesting and very nonintuitive phenomena from simple arguments with simple premises. These notes have three (perhaps ambitious) aims: (a) to introduce undergraduates to special relativity from its founding principle to its varied consequences, (b) to serve as a reference for those ...
متن کاملSpecial Relativity
Inertial frames are frames related by a constant velocity along any axis. An object is at rest in an inertial frame when its position in space does not change with time. We consider two inertial frames: the 26-100 (S) frame in which we are at rest and the Space Shuttle frame (S ′) which moves relative to S with a velocity u along the x axis and in which the Shuttle is at rest. Newton postulated...
متن کاملInteracting vector fields in Relativity without Relativity
Barbour, Foster and Ó Murchadha have recently developed a new framework, called here the 3-space approach, for the formulation of classical bosonic dynamics. Neither time nor a locally Minkowskian structure of spacetime are presupposed. Both arise as emergent features of the world from geodesic-type dynamics on a space of 3-dimensional metric–matter configurations. In fact gravity, the universa...
متن کاملAn omission in Special Relativity
In Special Relativity there are infinitely many equivalence classes of frames of reference. In each such class every two frames of reference move uniformly with respect to one another. It appears that the following questions have never been asked : In which of such equivalence classes of frames of reference is Special Relativity supposed to hold ? How can we identify such a class, and do so the...
