相对论-伽利略的孩子
The Theory of Relativity - Galileo's Child
摘要:
我们确定的洛伦兹变换和狭义相对论的运动学内容和动力学框架,作为纯粹的伽利略的思想的延伸。不需要提到光:相对论在逻辑上与光的任何性质无关。伽利略的思想在一个参数为1/c^2的洛伦兹变换系统中得到了充分的实现,而这个参数是一个未确定的、普遍的自然常数;在其他任何系统中都无法实现。空间的各向同性在所有这一切中起着深刻而关键的作用,因为三维空间在这里乍一出现,并一直持续到结论:相对论永远不可能在一个空间维度中得到充分的发展。
英文摘要:
We determine the Lorentz transformations and the kinematic content and dynamical framework of special relativity as purely an extension of Galileo's thoughts. No reference to light is ever required: The theories of relativity are logically independent of any properties of light. The thoughts of Galileo are fully realized in a system of Lorentz transformations with a parameter 1/c^2, some undetermined, universal constant of nature; and are realizable in no other. Isotropy of space plays a deep and pivotal role in all of this, since here three-dimensional space appears at first blush, and persists until the conclusion: Relativity can never correctly be fully developed in just one spatial dimension.
