SRT: The Essence. To understand SRT we need to answer to the simple question: In which Reference frame the SRT event is happened? One of the SRT postulate says – in Galileo/ Newtonian space. The other postulate says - in the vacuum. But the common opinion – the SRT takes place in Minkowski absolute negative 4D. Minkowski gave explanation of 4D using his ‘Light cone’. In the picture of the ‘Light cone’ we can see that in the past the particle moved along the straight line of time with speed c=1. In the future it will move also along the straight line with speed c=1. But what is happened on the border, in the moment of present? In that moment was needed ( by some reason) to use Fitzgerald / Lorentz transformation (speed). Why? More than 100 years we don’t have clear answer. Without known the physical (thermo dynamical ) and geometrical parameters of the Reference frame ( -4D) we cannot assign any meaning to the SRT at all. ==============================. Socratus.
