We demonstrate a striking theorem imbedded in the Lorentz Transformation, unnoticed explicitly since the birth of Special Relativity in 1905, connecting Time Dilatation, Lorentz Contraction, and non-simultaneity as we shift from one frame to another. We start by expressing the theorem in words aphor
In this paper we develop a method to write Einstein's field equations for general matter in an irreducible form that fully incorporates the character of a symmetry introduced in spacetime. We express our method using the framework of double congruences and thus the formalism is covariant. The basic
It is noted that in a virtual displacement from an equilibrium state of a simple fluid subject to appropriate constraints (e.g., SS, = 6p, = 0), its energy and hence its inertial mass in the rest frame is increased: SM o > 0. In a general inertial frame 1, 6M > 0, the momentum is increased, and tran
