This document provides an introduction to special relativity. It discusses how special relativity was developed by Einstein in 1905 to explain experimental issues involving light and electromagnetism.
From reading this article, you will learn: The underlying reasoning behind what general relativity is all about; why we use tensors, how and why gravity has something to do with spacetime curvature as well as what the actual equations of general relativity really tell us in an intuitive sense.
1 Introduction. General relativity, and its application to cosmological models such as in ation, is a remark-ably beautiful and elegant theory. Yet newcomers to the eld often face at least three types of challenges: conceptual, mathematical, and notational.
This course will introduce you to the concepts behind special relativity including, but not limited to, length contraction, time dilation, the Lorentz transformation, relativistic kinematics, Doppler shifts, and even so-called “paradoxes.”
1 Απρ 2008 · Einstein’s special theory of relativity is presented in a Minkowski four-vector formalism integrating mechanics and thermodynamics at a sophomore level, allowing the solution of undergraduate … Expand
25 Μαΐ 2020 · The Special Theory of Relativity aims to established a link between space and time. In classical physics, space and time are separate and they are absolute, so they are the same in all...
Finally, the general principle of relativity per-mits us to determine the influence of the gravita-tional field on the course of all those processes which take place according to known laws when a gravitational field is absent, i.e. which have already been fitted into the frame of the special theory of relativity.
