An article by Michael Weiss and John Baez might help.

In the paper, http://arxiv.org/pdf/1205.3365v1.pdf, page 21, the author argues that if:
t →∞(1-iϵ), all the terms in equation (193) goes to zero, except the first term.
Can anyone explain this to me?
Thanks
In Ramakrishna's paper, http://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/1111/1111.1922.pdf , he derived equation (9), page 5.
It is a difference of two square-roots using an approximation method. Can anyone help in how this is done?
Thanks
In Ramakrishna's paper, http://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/1111/1111.1922.pdf , it very much nails the error in the Opera`s findings.

Relativity is a difficult subject. Even simple cases are difficult to tackle. I would suggest that before looking at complex situations, you start looking at simple cases to begin with. Here are two simple cases:
1) Twin paradox. See: http://soi.blogspot.com/2011/09/twin-paradox.html
2)...
A consequence of Relativity is that we seek laws that are Lorentz invariant: meaning, if we have an equation A = BC + D in one frame of reference, then using the lorentz transformation laws to another frame of reference, we get A' = B'C' + D'. Note that not all equations will have this property...
