    Undergrad Could the (SR) forbidden photon's own referential mean something?

    Step 1 – What SR says (as I understand it): For a photon, proper time dτ = 0. If we (naively) try to go into the photon's "frame", the Lorentz transformations blow up. The standard interpretation: "The photon has no rest frame, end of story." Step 2 – What bothers me: If dτ = 0, that means...

    Undergrad Are the basic axioms of thermodynamics demonstrated experimentally?

    I would like to propose a very simple experiment and ask: what is the official thermodynamic prediction for this specific setup? And, are such basic experiments performed during physics training, or do courses move directly to more complex experiments while taking the foundational axioms for...
