Introductory special relativity
Rosser, W.G.V.
Introductory special relativity - London ; New York : Taylor & Francis, 1991. - xi, 263 pages : illustrations ;
Includes Index
Newtonian mechanics and the principle of relativity; motion of charges in electric and magnetic fields; historical development of the theory of special relativity; special relativity and the the Lorentz transformations; relativistic kinematics and optics; relativistic mechanics and conservation laws; four-vector methods; electromagnetism and special relativity; space travel and the clock paradox. Appendices: The Michelson-Morley experiment; the simultaneity of spatially separated events; the principle of equivalence.
A physics textbook for first-year undergraduates. Among the subjects covered are Newtonian mechanics and the Galilean transformations, Lorentz transformations, the principle of constancy, velocity transformations, relativistic mechanics, relativistic electromagnetism and the clock paradox
