The main purpose of this paper is to rethink the relativity issue within the framework of the fundamental postulates of quantum mechanics. The aspect of so-called ``double special relativity'' (DSR) is a starting point in our discussion.…
The de Sitter invariant special relativity is a natural extension of the usual Einstein special relativity. Within this framework a generalization of special relativity (SR) for the de Sitter space-time introduces a new length scale $R$,…
The requirements imposed by relativistic covariance on the physical description of two interacting classical charged particles are investigated. Because rotational pseudo-forces cannot be caused by Thomas precession, kinematical…
We consider the perihelion precession and bending of light in a class of Kaluza-Klein models and show that the "electric redshift" model, proposed in Zhang (2006) to explain the redshift of Quasars, does not agree with observations. As…
The Cohen-Glashow Very Special Relativity (VSR) algebra [arXiv:hep-ph/0601236] is defined as the part of the Lorentz algebra which upon addition of CP or T invariance enhances to the full Lorentz group, plus the space-time translations. We…
In this paper, Lorentz Transformation(LT) is derived by an alternate method, using photon clocks, placed at the locations of the concerned events, which are initially synchronised using a light signal(Einstein synchrony). Then, it is shown…
The concept of group velocity of a particle should be consistent with its Hamilton-Jacobi velocity. This point is missed in the work of Cohen, Glashow, "{\it Pair Creation Constrains Superluminal Neutrino Propagation}" (Phys. Rev. Lett.…
This paper presents the quantization of massive and massless spin-2 particles, using the auxiliary field method. The issue, the so-called vDVZ-discontinuity, whether the perihelion precessions for a massive graviton are in agreement with…
We explore the properties of spin splitting for neutral particles possessing electric and magnetic dipole moments propagating in an electromagnetic field. Two notable features of the spin splitting and the associated Larmor precession are…
Whenever a compound exhibits a spontaneous muSR oscillation, long-range magnetic ordering is usually inferred. Here we show that some caution is required. The coherence length needs not to be large for a spontaneous muon spin precession to…
Wigner's little groups are subgroups of the Lorentz group dictating the internal space-time symmetries of massive and massless particles. These little groups are like O(3) and E(2) for massive and massless particles respectively. While the…
The orbital Lense-Thirring precession is considered in the context of constraints for weak-field General Relativity involving the cosmological constant $\Lambda$. It is shown that according to the current accuracy of satellite measurements…
Modification of special theory of relativity is proposed to describe the propagation of signals with superluminal velocity. Modified kinematics and Lorentz transformations of Maxwell's equations are described. A possible experiment on…
We show that special relativity (SR) may be consistent with the OPERA measurements of the neutrino velocity provided the latter is corrected for the second order term in V^2/c^2 implied by the velocity, V, of the alpha particles from…
Only astronomical observations can effectively probe in space-time the variabil ity of the physical dimensionless constants such as the fine structure constant and proton-to-electron mass ratio, \mu, which are related to fund amental forces…
The dependence of the particle rotation frequency on the particle orbit perturbations is found. The exact equation of spin motion in the cylindrical coordinate system is derived. The calculated formula for the frequency of g-2 precession is…
The energy eigenvalue problem of non-relativistic positronium is considered within the framework of Relativistic Schroedinger Theory (RST), and the results are compared to those of the conventional quantum theory. For the range of princi-…
Recently entanglement suppression was proposed to be one potential origin of emergent symmetries. In this work, we extend this theoretical framework to accommodate particles with arbitrary spins and/or arbitrary group representations. As…
This thesis covers a few successes of the SM and its limitations. The limitations implement that the SM must be expanded to explain the observables which can not be addressed by the SM such as mass of neutrinos, a few of anomalies, DM, DE,…
The polarization emerging in the subsequent scattering processes can never exceed $1$ which corresponds to the fully polarized pure state. This property is shown to be provided by the addition rule similar to that for relativistic…
