相对性原理及其对自然界定律的协变性要求--机械能守恒定律协变性疑难的解答

阐明狭义相对性原理的准确含义,批出它并不要求自然界每条定律都单独协变,但要求每条定律至少属于一个协变集合,给出最小协变集的求法。表明机械能守恒定律满足狭义相对性原理及其对自然界定律的协变性要求,还指出一切社会科学定律也都满足狭义相对性原理。

澄清对相对论性原理和协变性的误解

近来有些文章断言,在一个惯性参考系里能量守恒的物理系统,在别的参考系看来能量也一定守恒.实际上这些作者混淆了物理方程式的协变性和相对性原理.本文将澄清这一误解.     

A modified Lorentz theory as a test theory of special relativity

A modified Lorentz theory (MLT) based on the generalized Galilean transformation has recently received attention. In the framework of MLT, some explicit formulas dealing with the one-way velocity of light, slow-clock transport and the Doppler effect are derived in this paper. Several typical experiments are analyzed on this basis. The results show that the empirical equivalence between MLT and special relativity is still maintained to second order terms. We confirm recent findings of other works that predict the MLT might be distinguished from special relativity at the third order by Doppler centrifuge experiments capable of a fractional frequency detection threshold of 10^–15.     

Dual properties of spacetime under an alternative Lorentz transformation

In flat spacetime, the fourth space coordinate in special relativity (SR) is equivalent to the coordinate time t_E. We will show, however, that this definition of physical time is not unique. Another natural choice of coordinate time, t_A, with absolute synchronization is allowed. Spacetime would exhibit dual properties, namely relativistic and absolute. In an arbitrary inertial frame, the relationship of the above two kinds of coordinate time corresponds to a resynchronization, and the Lorentz transformations can be written in an alternative form, which is called the generalized Galilean transformation (GGT). Although the absolute property is still hidden in nearly all types of experiments, the advantages of the above approach are as follows: (1) It will give us a deeper understanding of SR, including the basis of length contraction, time dilation and the interaction between moving objects and the physical vacuum. (2) It will provide a wider research domain than SR; for example, superluminal motion is predicted and has obtained growing experimental support.     

On the Principle of Relativity

In a recent article [1] M.A. Oliver argues there is a conflict between Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity (STR) and Cosmology. In ascertaining this conflict (see below), Oliver finds allies in Bergmann [2] and Bondi [3]. To resolve this conflict, he proposes to restore the classical (mechanical) concepts of space and time [1, p.666] and an absolute rest-frame. I shall devote a few words (1) to the Principle of Relativity and (2) to the notion of cosmic time in cosmology; this enables me (3) to argue that the alleged conflict between STR and Cosmology is based on a misunderstanding of the Principle of Relativity. (4) Finally I take a critical look at Oliver's allies.     

Study of reflection of light by a moving mirror

The law of reflection of light by a moving mirror in the case of special Lorentz transformation is well known. We have derived the law of reflection of light by a moving mirror in the case of the most general Lorentz transformation. It has been observed that in the case of special Lorentz transformation, the law of reflection of light by a moving mirror is very simple but in the case of the most general Lorentz transformation, the law of reflection of light by a moving mirror is very complex.

An Analytical Treatment of the Clock Paradox in the Framework of the Special and General Theories of Relativity

No Heading In this paper we treat the so called clock paradox in an analytical way by assuming that a constant and uniform force F of finite magnitude acts continuously on the moving clock along the direction of its motion assumed to be rectilinear (in space). No inertial motion steps are considered. The rest clock is denoted as (1), the to and fro moving clock is (2), the inertial frame in which (1) is at rest in its origin and (2) is seen moving is I and, finally, the accelerated frame in which (2) is at rest in its origin and (1) moves forward and backward is A. We deal with the following questions: (1) What is the effect of the finite force acting on (2) on the proper time interval ⁽²⁾ measured by the two clocks when they reunite? Does a differential aging between the two clocks occur, as it happens when inertial motion and infinite values of the accelerating force is considered? The special theory of relativity is used in order to describe the hyperbolic (in spacetime) motion of (2) in the frame I. (II) Is this effect an absolute one, i.e., does the accelerated observer A comoving with (2) obtain the same results as that obtained by the observer in I, both qualitatively and quantitatively, as it is expected? We use the general theory of relativity in order to answer this question. It turns out that _I = _A for both the clocks, ⁽²⁾ does depend on g = F/m, and = ⁽²⁾/⁽¹⁾ = (1 – ²atanhj)/ < 1. In it ; = V/c and V is the velocity acquired by (2) when the force is inverted.     

Beltrami-de Sitter时空和de Sitter不变的狭义相对论

From De Sitter Special Relativity and Snyder's Model to Complete Yang Model

The de Sitter special relativity on the Beltrami-de Sitter-spacetime and Snyder's model in the momentum space can be combined together with an IR-UV duality to get the complete Yang model at both classical and quantum levels, which are related by the proposed Killing quantization. It is actually a special relativity based on the principle of relativity of three universal constants (c,l_P,R).
