Length standards and the twin paradox in the special theory of relativity
"In this Thesis I work towards a discussion of several resolutions of the Twin Paradox by exploring the Lorentz transformations. I begin by asking what it means for a moving length to contract1 a question which obviously cannot be divorced from the propagation of length standards from one reference …

The correlation between the special theory of relativity and subsonic compressible fluid mechanics
It is of utmost importance to note that the Sound-Space approach to subsonic compressibility effects is an exact solution to the problem. That is, equation 19.5 is an exact relation between the compressible and incompressible local pressure coefficients. Nowhere in the preceding analysis was it …

Quantum nonlocality: an analysis of the implications of Bell's Theorem and quantum correlations for nonlocality.
… locality conditions. So to understand the nature of nonlocality in EPR, we first need to understand the conceptual relations between factorizability, these various locality conditions and the nature of the quantum correlations. That is the main focus of my thesis. My main conclusion is that these …

The effect of the relativity correction on the law of reflection from a moving mirror
… the Lorentz transformation formulas from the special theory of relativity in dealing with the law of reflection from a moving mirror. It was found necessary in the proof to consider the source of the light ray and its final destination. For this reason the mirror was taken to be one side of a …
