Product Description
This book is divided into two parts. In the first part we introduce the foundations of special relativity, such as, the inertial frame of reference, the definition of simulataneity, velocity addition, length contraction, the apparent shape of a moving body, time-dilation, Doppler effect, and the Thomas precession, in particular, the simultaneity problem and slow transport of clocks are investigated in detail by means of the test theories of special relativity. In th… More >>
