Perspectivism and Special Relativity

open access: yesTeorie vědy, 2021
The special theory of relativity holds significant interest for scientific perspectivists. In this paper, I distinguish between two related meanings of “perspectival,” and argue that reference frames are perspectives, provided that perspectival means ...

The Simplicity of Disproving the Theory of Special Relativity

open access: yesScience & Philosophy, 2022
Einstein’s theory of Special relativity is founded on an error made by Hendrick Lorentz.  It is not necessary to expose the mathematical inconsistencies of special relativity, since the theory collapses by simply exposing the error made by Lorentz.

Special relativity on the light-front

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ensino de Física, 2021
P.A.M. Dirac in 1949 showed that it is possible to construct relativistic dynamic forms starting from the description of the initial state of a given relativistic system in any space-time surface whose distances between two points on this hypersurface ...

An Improved Framework for Quantum Gravity

open access: yesUniverse, 2020
General relativity has two fundamental problems that render it unsuitable for tackling the gravitational field’s quantization. The first problem is the lack of a genuine gravitational variable representing gravitation only, inertial forces apart.

Physics of Deformed Special Relativity: Relativity Principle revisited [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
In many different ways, Deformed Special Relativity (DSR) has been argued to provide an effective limit of quantum gravity in almost-flat regime. Some experiments will soon be able to test some low energy effects of quantum gravity, and DSR is a very ...

Comment on ‘Quantum principle of relativity’

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2023
Dragan and Ekert in the paper (2020 New. J. Phys. 22 033038) presented ‘quantum principle of relativity’ (QPR) based on Galilean principle of relativity, which involves both superluminal G _S and subluminal G _s families of observers and argue that then ...

An alternative way to present a relativistic Lagrangian definition

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ensino de Física, 2021
As long we known, the non-relativistic Lagrangian definition, L = T − U with T and U as being, respectively, kinetic and potential energy, it is not valid at the relativistic level.

Generalizations of Snyder model to curved spaces

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2022
We consider generalizations of the Snyder algebra to a curved spacetime background with de Sitter symmetry. As special cases, we obtain the algebras of the Yang model and of triply special relativity.

Correcting the Doppler Effect

open access: yesScience & Philosophy, 2023
Christian Doppler, an Austrian physicist, described in 1842 the apparent change in frequency of a wave when motion of the source or the observer is involved. Named after him, this change in observational frequencies is known as the Doppler Effect.

Some comments on the universal constant in DSR [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Deformed Special Relativity is usually presented as a deformation of Special Relativity accommodating a new universal constant, the Planck mass, while respecting the relativity principle. In order to avoid some fundamental problems (e.g.
