Relativity of superluminal observers in $1+3$ spacetime

General Physics 2023-01-05 v2 Quantum Physics

Abstract

We develop an extension of special relativity in 1+31+3 dimensional spacetime to account for superluminal inertial observers and show that such an extension rules out the conventional dynamics of mechanical point-like particles and forces one to use a field-theoretic framework. Therefore we show that field theory can be viewed as a direct consequence of extended special relativity.
