Michelson, FitzGerald and Lorentz: the origins of relativity revisited
It is argued that an unheralded moment marking the beginnings of relativity theory occurred in 1889, when G. F. FitzGerald, no doubt with the puzzling 1887 Michelson-Morley experiment fresh in mind, wrote to Heaviside about the possible effects of motion on inter-molecular forces in bodies. Emphasis is placed on the difference between FitzGerald’s and Lorentz’s independent justification of the ...

متن کاملP-V approach revisited.
To the Editor:—We read the article “Controlled Airway Pressure Therapy, Nitric Oxide Inhalation, Prone Position, and Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) as Components of an Integrated Approach to ARDS” with great interest, and we congratulate the authors for their well-conducted study. A lung-protective strategy with reduction of shear stress by keeping positive end-expiratory pressure a...
متن کاملA real Lorentz-FitzGerald contraction
Many condensed matter systems are such that their collective excitations at low energies can be described by fields satisfying equations of motion formally indistinguishable from those of relativistic field theory. The finite speed of propagation of the disturbances in the effective fields (in the simplest models, the speed of sound) plays here the role of the speed of light in fundamental phys...
متن کاملPolygraphy revisited: U.S. v. Scheffer.
U.S. v. Scheffer is a case that poses two questions. First, must a defendant who wishes to place polygraphic evidence before the court be allowed to do so for fear that refusal will create a Constitutional issue by depriving him of due process? Second, is polygraphic evidence admissible evidence at all, as defined by the Military Rule of Evidence or the Federal Rules of Evidence? The case, orig...
