Factorization of the Lorentz transformations

Classical Physics 2023-02-07 v1

Abstract

The article shows how the factorization of an arbitrary Lorentz transformation is performed. That is, representation of an arbitrary Lorentz transformation as a sequence of spatial rotation and boost or boost and spatial rotation. Relations are obtained that determine the required boosts and turns.
