I don't claim its the best way to explain special relativity – I just found it interesting, as it tries to take the just hypothetical nature of 4D spacetime as far as possible while giving results in line with experiments. I tried to resist the urge to There are different ways to introduce special relativity. In 1905, Albert Einstein solved the paradox between Newton and Maxwell with the introduction of the notion of space-time: the basic idea is that the time and the space can't be considered as two distinct entities because they are an unique object. Feb 26, 2014 - I am just reading the volume titled Waves in my favorite series of ancient textbooks on Theoretical Physics by German physics professor Wilhelm Macke. May 21, 2013 - American Journal of Physics, Vol. Thus, space-time structure is reduced to pure temporal structure. Oct 7, 2009 - The bulk of the current discussion is the non-technical presentation of the beautiful interaction between Mathematics and Physics appearing in the definition of the ADM mass in General Relativity and its application (by . By Robert Resnick - Find this book online from $9.59. Jul 5, 2013 - Numerical methods were introduced into geometry by means of coordinate systems. This can be extremely powerful as a mathematical tool, but it can also obscure the physical In a Relativistic setting (but not a classical setting), one can maintain that the ultimate physical source of directed lines in space-time is time: the ordering of the events is exactly time order.
