Lorentz transformation on two-dimensional spacetime is obtained without assumption of linearity. To obtain this, we use the invariance of wave equations, which is recently proved to be equivalent to the causality preservation.
Recently Einstein's invariance of the phase of a plane wave (1905) has been described as "questionable" (Huang). Another definition of this phase, taking into account a "relativistically induced optical anisotropy" for isotropic medium in…
In general, Maxwell's equations require that a wave of electric field be accompanied by a wave of magnetic field, and vice versa. However, it is possible to have a plane wave in a dielectric medium with electric field E parallel to the wave…
Resonances are common in wave physics and their full and rigorous characterization is crucial to correctly tailor the response of a system in both time and frequency domains. However, they have been conventionally described by the quality…
