What is Frames: Definition and 630 Discussions

Dropped Frames is a multi-album project by American musician Mike Shinoda, currently consisting of three volumes. Dropped Frames, Vol. 1 was released on July 10, 2020, with subsequent volumes following on July 31 and September 18 of the same year. The project was composed interactively with fans on Shinoda's Twitch channel. All three albums were distributed via Kenji Kobayashi Productions, Shinoda's own company capitally related to Machine Shop co. With the exception of the opening track of volume 1, "Open Door", tracks on Dropped Frames are primarily instrumental.

    I Transform Bases for 4-Vectors in Ref. Frames

    Hello! Why do we need to impose a change on the basis vector, when going from a reference frame to another. I understand that the components of the vector and the basis change using inverse matrices (the components use a matrix and the vector basis the inverse). But the transformation condition...

    B Is it that hard to do Relativity in accelerating frames?

    According to the Lorentz transformations, in the absence of gravity, the relations between coordinates of a primed system to those of a unprimed system are $$x'^{\ \alpha} = \Lambda^{\alpha}{}_{\beta}x^{\beta}$$ For the Lorentz invariance to be satisfied we must have...

    Hi people, I have a question about the frame of references. Let's have an example: First case: Jill on rocket and Jack stationary on Earth. Jill moves relatives to Jack 0.6c (1.8*10^8m/s). The distance is 18*10^8m. At the zero time Jack and Jill synchronize their clocks. Then Jill starts to...

    Hi all - hope I'm not beating a dead horse here, but I'm following up on at least two other threads (made sense to consolidate): There are theories of quantum gravity (or the Standard Model Extension) that allow for local Lorentz violation. So, my first question: is there any reason why there...

    Hello everyone, sorry if this is a noob question; I'm just starting out with special relativity.

    I Why Does GR Not Allow Global Reference Frames?

    Under SR, we can talk about inertial frames that apply globally. However apparently, under GR, this concept only applies locally, because it breaks down on larger scales. Can anyone provide an explanation as to why this is? Is this due to the fact that space-time is warped in GR?
