Re: An “analytical-metaphysical” take on Special Relativity!

It is quite late when writing this, but I just wanted to give a quick sign of life here. I have read through the OP and my first reaction was that it seems to make perfect sense, and appears to reach - at least in my mind - quite expected conclusions. Many times, I would have expected that the relationships between isotropic C <-> simultaneity <-> geometry should be clear to everyone at least to the extent of being able to see how changing one definition (or call them postulates) affects the others, but I guess I've been proven wrong on that one many times :I

I also skimmed the responses and indeed seems like most of the reactions are based on little bit poor understanding of where the fundamental equation came from... That's a bit unfortunate but I guess it suffices that people then take that result on faith at first... :I

Anyway, as was the case with Schrödinger, I should still walk through the math in detail, to get an exactly proper view. And once again I will need help with that, so I'll try to get around to ask some questions...

But for now have to hit the sack,
-Anssi

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
