Relativity concept inventory: Development, analysis, and results
Physical Review Special Topics. Physics Education Research, 2013 We report on a concept inventory for special relativity: the development process, data analysis methods, and results from an introductory relativity class. The Relativity Concept Inventory tests understanding of relativistic concepts.

More tests of special relativity
Nature, 1986 Yet another experiment has provided a novel test of special relativity, one that duplicates in the laboratory phenomena for which people usually look to astrophysics.

Long-term stable optical cavity for special relativity tests in space
Optics Express, 2019 BOOST (BOOst Symmetry Test) is a proposed space mission to search for Lorentz invariance violations and aims to improve the Kennedy-Thorndike parameter constraint by two orders of magnitude.

Calorimetric test of special relativity [PDF]
Physical Review A, 1984 Momentum-analyzed beams of 20 and $17.326 \frac{\mathrm{GeV}}{c}$ electrons with average currents of 4.23 and 4.55, and 9.48, 9.57, 14.4, and 15.66 \ensuremath{\mu}A, respectively, are predicted by special relativity to have average powers of 84.5 and 91, and 164.3, 165.8, 249.5, and 271.3 kW, respectively.

Relativistic Astronomy. III. Test of Special Relativity via Doppler Effect [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2019 Abstract The “Breakthrough Starshot” program is planning to send transrelativistic probes to travel to nearby stellar systems within decades. Because the probe velocity is designed to be a good fraction of the light speed, Zhang & Li recently proposed that these transrelativistic probes can be used to study astronomical objects and ...

Recent Experimental Tests of Special Relativity
, 2005 We review our recent Michelson-Morley (MM) and Kennedy-Thorndike (KT) experiment, which tests Lorentz invariance in the photon sector, and report first results of our ongoing atomic clock test of Lorentz invariance in the matter sector.

The Simplicity of Disproving the Theory of Special Relativity
Science & 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.

X-ray Tests of General Relativity with Black Holes [PDF]
Symmetry, 2023 General relativity is one of the pillars of modern physics. For decades, the theory has been mainly tested in the weak-field regime with experiments in the solar system and radio observations of binary pulsars.
