Herman Trivilino replied to the thread I Can this experiment break Lorentz symmetry?.Your "long linear accelerator" is fundamentally the same as your launcher. They each perform the same function.
-
Herman Trivilino replied to the thread I Can this experiment break Lorentz symmetry?.The launches are symmetric, right? I don't understand how this is different from what happens to the balls later when they are sped up...

Herman Trivilino reacted to ersmith's post in the thread I Understanding the historical shift away from absolute simultaneity with
Informative.
Putting aside the history for a moment, the significance of universal simultaneity in Newtonian mechanics comes from there being no... -
Herman Trivilino replied to the thread I Understanding the historical shift away from absolute simultaneity.Every theory has limits of validity. So it's always possible that a theory can be replaced with another that has less restrictive...
