Approaching space time trough velocity in Doubly Special Relativity
We discuss the definition of velocity as dE/d|p|, where E,p are the energy and momentum of a particle, in Doubly Special Relativity (DSR). If this definition matches dx/dt appropriate for the space-time sector, then space-time can in principle be built consistently with the existence of an invariant length scale. We show that, within different possible definitions, this program fails, and this ...
متن کاملDoubly Special Relativity
I give a short non-technical review of the results obtained in recent work on “Doubly Special Relativity”, the relativistic theories in which the rotation/boost transformations between inertial observers are characterized by two observer-independent scales (the familiar velocity scale, c, and a new observer-independent length/momentum scale, naturally identified with the Planck length/momentum)...
متن کامل2 00 3 Doubly Special Relativity and de Sitter space
In this paper we recall the construction of Doubly Special Relativity (DSR) as a theory with energy-momentum space being the four dimensional de Sitter space. Then the bases of the DSR theory can be understood as different coordinate systems on this space. We investigate the emerging geometrical picture of Doubly Special Relativity by presenting the basis independent features of DSR that includ...
متن کاملConformal Generators and Doubly Special Relativity Theories
In this paper, the relation between the modified Lorenz boosts, proposed in the doubly relativity theories and a linear combination of Conformal Group generators in R1,d−1 is investigated. The introduction of a new generator is proposed in order to deform the Conformal Group to achieve the connection conjectured. The new generator is obtained trough a formal dimensional reduction from a free ma...
متن کاملSpace Time Measurements in Special Relativity
The conventional discussion of apparent distortions of space and time in Special Relativity (the Lorentz-Fitzgerald Contraction and Time Dilatation) is extended by considering observations of : (i) moving objects of limited lifetime in their own rest frame ('transient luminous objects') and (ii) a moving extended array of synchro-nised 'equivalent clocks' in a common inertial frame. Application...
