THE author of this work has made up his mind in advance that the question of relativity is a philosophical problem. It is therefore necessary for him to dismiss contemptuously all the history of the ...
The "Einstein field equations" are the core of Einstein's general theory of relativity. This single line of mathematical ...
Michelson's interference experiment / by H.A. Lorentz -- Electromagnetic phenomena in a system moving with any velocity less than that of light / by H.A. Lorentz -- On the electrodynamics of moving ...
The book under review begins with an interesting historical account of the experiments dealing with the elucidation of the sether-idea in physics, and we are led through the work of Michelson and ...
The weak-equivalence principle is integral to general relativity, so these test results offer yet more support for a core theory of our universe. In 1916, Albert Einstein dared to declare that Isaac ...
Since its beginnings, quantum mechanics hasn't ceased to amaze us with its peculiarity, so difficult to understand. Why does one particle seem to pass through two slits simultaneously? Why, instead of ...
If you try and divide matter into smaller and smaller chunks, you'll eventually arrive at the particles we know of as fundamental: the ones that cannot be decomposed any further. The particles of the ...
To counter hacking, researchers have developed a new system based on the concept of 'zero-knowledge proofs', the security of which is based on the physical principle of relativity: information cannot ...

How would our world be viewed by observers moving faster than light in a vacuum? Such a picture would be clearly different from what we encounter every day. "We should expect to see not only phenomena ...
