Code: 5FY211

Kursen behandlar grunderna i speciell relativitetsteori. Med utgÄngspunkt frÄn relativitetsprincipen och ljushastighetspostulatet hÀrleds Lorentztransformationen. DÀrefter studeras tidsdilation, lÀngdkontraktion och samtidighetens relativitet. Slutligen sÄ behandlas relativistisk dynamik dÀr de relativistiska energi- och rörelsemÀngdsbegreppen introduceras för bÄde massiva och masslösa partiklar. Bevarandelagar för dessa tillÀmpas för att studera enklare partikelsönderfall. Under kursens gÄng diskuteras Àven nÄgra av de skenbara paradoxerna som teorin ger upphov till, t.ex. tvilling- och garageparadoxerna.
