摘要
在表示洛伦兹变换的复平面上,考察各边平行于坐标轴的直角三角形,以其中各边比例关系为“投影关系”,用于简明地诠释双生子佯谬的实质。
The Lorentz transformation can be represented by a rotation of the coordinate ax es( x and i ct )to the coordinate axes( x ′ and i ct ′)through an an gle φ = arctg(-i β ). If we set up a right triangle in the complex p lane with its two sides forming the right angle parallel to the coordinate axes, the proportional relations of its sides may be called the “projection relations ” which can facilitate the elucidation about the twin paradox in the special th eory of relativity.
