The general Galilean transformation versus Lorentz transformation: The motion in an isosceles triangle

摘要

Recently, the general Galilean transformation (GGT) has been found. We have seen that from the GGT, we can derive the Galilean transformation and the general Doppler effect at an arbitrary angle, and the GGT also incorporates the Lorentz factor. In this paper, we will see another GGTapplication, in a case about which the special theory of relativity (STR) fails to give an answer.
