Graduate [SR] - Photonic Reference Frame
I did read both the links and simply got rushed in concluding my earlier post. Sorry to clarify, I have been told these things by others: Due to the undefined nature of the Lorentz factor and that Photons can't be treated as an observational point, this thought experiment is invalid. I guess I...- RagingCain

Graduate [SR] - Photonic Reference Frame
That pretty much covers what I have already observed in my head. I am also familiar with Minkowski diagram. While it helps the observation of sub-luminal up to the luminal, it still leaves me completely lost at understanding the reference frame of an individual Photon. Would you be willing to...- RagingCain

Graduate [SR] - Photonic Reference Frame
Recently learned about Special Relativity, so my brain is running perpetual circles around itself asking questions. So, I figured I would come here and ask where could I find out more information about the Lorentz Factor being undefined at a luminal velocity? Or more basically, where do I...- RagingCain

Undergrad Why is pressure in liquids not volume dependent?
If I understand it correctly, liquids such as water, in general have a natural state of distributing itself evenly over the largest possible surface area. While certain effects such as hydrogen bonding make "clumps" or pools of water, it is understood when you poor water out of a cup, it...- RagingCain
