Relativity: The Real Meaning

Francisco Martínez Flores

Abstract: Relativistic setting up is nothing more than a mathematical game between definitions and identities turned into principles or physical laws; in this sense, relationship of physical quantities from distinct moving systems is reduced to a fixed system regarding a moving one, so that the time or mass estimated from such a system are given by definition and they can only acquire physical meaning when are considered from the fixed frame. Lorentz’s transformation is only valid for electromagnetic phenomena and for subatomic particles, such as electron, which by virtue of the wave-corpuscle duality, can manifest its wavelike nature; its extension to classical particles is non-viable. The only mass to consider is the relativistic one, variable (it depends on velocity), but must be “virtual”. However, that virtualitiy confers to the same a great operative capacity under which it is possible to determine the energy levels working in weak, strong and electromagnetic interactions, as well as those produced in the nuclear reactions. The confusión comes of having mixed two spaces conceptually different: a) ordinary or common one, in which we can use space and time to obtain the velocity as a kinematic characteristic of any particle; b) fields (functions), whose arguments (phases), contain the dynamic variables (energy and momentum) through frequency and wavenumber as essential parameters, which relationship results in the propagation of light’s speed, as an universal constant, quite independent of any velocity. Keywords: Relativity, Relationship of Physical Quantities, Principles or Physical Laws. Title: Relativity: The Real Meaning Author: Francisco Martínez Flores.
