Extend Inertial Coordinate SystemSymmetry of Galileo and Newton
• THE EINSTEIN PRINCIPLE OFRELATIVITYo "ALL OF THE LAWS OF PHYSICS are
the same for every inertial observer."• In particular,
o "The speed of light is the SAME for allinertial observers, regardless of themotion of the source.”
• But this required some big changesin our basic understanding of time.

Speed of Light• The speed of light (c) was the central question
that gave rise to the theory of relativity.• The speed of light is very large compared to the
speeds we experience.o We have no physical intuition about speeds
approaching c.• We can however measure the speed of light with
a rotating mirror.o Light bounces off the mirror twice with a long distance
in betweeno A small deflection results !x =

In what frame is the speed of light c?• The equations of EM were consistent if the speed
of light is constant in one fixed frame .o Physicists thought EM waves must propagate in some
medium.o Postulated the “ether” (aether).
→ They thought, space is filled with “the ether” in which EM wavespropagate at a fixed speed.
o Ether gave one fixed frame for EM.• But experiments disagreed.• And we would loose the symmetry found in
Newton’s laws; “any inertial frame”.

The Sun and Earth are Moving
• We should see some velocity of the ether.• We should see a seasonal variation.

The Michelson-Morley ExperimentAlbert Abraham Michelson (1852-1931) was a German-born U.S. physicist whoestablished the speed of light as a fundamental constant. He received the 1907 NobelPrize for Physics. In 1878 Michelson began work on the passion of his life, themeasurement of the speed of light. His attempt to measure the effect of the earth'svelocity through the supposed ether laid the basis for the theory of relativity. FirstAmerican scientist to win Nobel Prize.
Edward Williams Morley (1838-1923) was an American chemist whose reputation asa skilled experimenter attracted the attention of Michelson. In 1887 the pair performedwhat has come to be known as the Michelson-Morley experiment to measure themotion of the earth through the ether.

Michelson-Morley Experiment• Michelson interferometer on
a block of granite.o Light waves from two mirrors
will interfere.• Granite block floats in
mercury to greatly reducevibration.
• Slowly rotate apparatus andmeasure interference.o MM found no change as they
rotated.o Speed of light is the same even
though the earth is moving.
Wavelength of light is about 400nm so interferometermeasurement is very accurate.

Heaviside, Lorentz, FitzgeraldOliver Heaviside (1850-1925) was a telegrapher, but deafness forced him to retire and devote himself toinvestigations of electricity. He became an eccentric recluse, befriended by FitzGerald and (by correspondence)by Hertz. In 1892 he introduced the operational calculus (Laplace transforms) to study transient currents innetworks and theoretical aspects of problems in electrical transmission. In 1902, after wireless telegraphyproved effective over long distances, Heaviside theorized that a conducting layer of the atmosphere existed thatallows radio waves to follow the Earth's curvature. He invented vector analysis and wrote Maxwell’s equationsas we know them today. He showed how EM fields transformed to new inertial frames.
Hendrik Antoon Lorentz (1853-1928), a professor of physics at the University of Leiden, sought to explain theorigin of light by the oscillations of charged particles inside atoms. Under this assumption, a strong magneticfield would effect the wavelength. The observation of this effect by his pupil, Zeeman, won a Nobel prize for1902 for the pair. However, the Lorentz theory could not explain the results of the Michelson-Morley experiment.Influenced by the proposal of Fitzgerald, Lorentz arrived at the formulas known as the Lorentz transformationsto describe the relation of mass, length and time for a moving body. These equations form the basis forEinstein's special theory of relativity.
George Francis FitzGerald (1851-1901), a professor at Trinity College, Dublin, was the first to suggest that anoscillating electric current would produce radio waves, laying the basis for wireless telegraphy. In 1892FitzGerald suggested that the results of the Michelson-Morley experiment could be explained by the contractionof a body along its its direction of motion.Einstein
Working on Electrodynamics of moving bodies

“On the Electrodynamics ofMoving Bodies”
• Einstein had readLorentz’s book andworked for a few yearson the problem.• He did not believe
there should be onefixed frame.• He had a breakthrough,
“the step” in 1905.
While Einstein didn’t read much about the MM experiment, Lorentz did.

Einstein
Albert Einstein (1879-1955), one of the great geniuses of physics, grew up inMunich where his father and his uncle had a small electrical plant andengineering works. Einstein's special theory of relativity, first printed in 1905with the title "On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies" had its beginnings inan essay Einstein wrote at age sixteen. The special theory is often regardedas the capstone of classical electrodynamic theory.
Assistant patentagent, third classEinstein
Einstein did not get a Nobelprize for SR. He got one forcontributions to theoreticalphysics including thephotoelectric effect. Thecommittee did not think SR hadbeen proved correct until the1940s.

Velocity Addition• Einstein wanted the speed of light to be the
same in every frame.o This would work for EM equations.o It would agree with experiment.
→ Einstein did consider experiment but maybe not MichelsonMorley.
• But velocity addition didn’t make sense toanyone.o How could an observer in an inertial frame moving at
0.9c measure light to move at the same speed as wedo in our frame at rest? x ' = x + 0.9ct
v ' =dx '
dt=dx
dt+ 0.9c = v + 0.9c

• Einstein realized that bydiscarding the concept of auniversal time, the speed of lightcould be the same in every frame.o In going from one inertial frame to
another, both x and t transform.o The time is different in different
inertial frames of reference.o He derived the previously stated
Lorentz transformation fromrequirement that the speed of light isthe same in every inertial frame.

directly along the time axis.o Photons move on the light-
coneo We can shoot other particles
close to the light-cone• Spacelike vectors have
positive normo (Dot product with itself)
• Timelike vectors havenegative norm.
• Lightlike vectors are on thelight-cone and have zeronorm.

• 4-vectors transform under rotations• The dot product of 4-vectors is a scalar
and is invariant under rotations• The norm of a vector can be positive,
negative or zeroo Spacelike, timelike or lightlike respectively
• Transforming to an inertial frame movingin the x direction is a rotation in the x-tplane.

Heaviside, Lorentz, FitzgeraldOliver Heaviside (1850-1925) was a telegrapher, but deafness forced him to retire and devote himself toinvestigations of electricity. He became an eccentric recluse, befriended by FitzGerald and (by correspondence)by Hertz. In 1892 he introduced the operational calculus (Laplace transforms) to study transient currents innetworks and theoretical aspects of problems in electrical transmission. In 1902, after wireless telegraphyproved effective over long distances, Heaviside theorized that a conducting layer of the atmosphere existed thatallows radio waves to follow the Earth's curvature. He invented vector analysis and wrote Maxwell’s equationsas we know them today. He showed how EM fields transformed to new inertial frames.
Hendrik Antoon Lorentz (1853-1928), a professor of physics at the University of Leiden, sought to explain theorigin of light by the oscillations of charged particles inside atoms. Under this assumption, a strong magneticfield would effect the wavelength. The observation of this effect by his pupil, Zeeman, won a Nobel prize for1902 for the pair. However, the Lorentz theory could not explain the results of the Michelson-Morley experiment.Influenced by the proposal of Fitzgerald, Lorentz arrived at the formulas known as the Lorentz transformationsto describe the relation of mass, length and time for a moving body. These equations form the basis forEinstein's special theory of relativity.
George Francis FitzGerald (1851-1901), a professor at Trinity College, Dublin, was the first to suggest that anoscillating electric current would produce radio waves, laying the basis for wireless telegraphy. In 1892FitzGerald suggested that the results of the Michelson-Morley experiment could be explained by the contractionof a body along its its direction of motion.Einstein

Kaluza-Klein Theory• Kaluza (1919) postulated an invisible fifth
dimension.• Klein said it was invisible because it was
curled up into a small circle.• There is a circle at every point in 4D.
o The circle is very small.• There is a symmetry that we can be
anywhere on the circle U(1).• And there is a symmetry under rotations in
5D.• E&M may just be GR in this invisible
dimension.• In modern theories there are more extra
dimensions to accommodate the otherfields.

Gauge Symmetry
• A strange symmetry of wave functions and EM field• Extremely important in our theories of EM, and other
fields• We can change the phase of the wavefunction by a
different amount at every point in space-time.o We must make a related change in the EM potential Aµ at
every point.• Gauge symmetry keeps photon massless.• Is this really some space-time symmetry in extra
dimensions?o A curled up extra dimension can give EM gauge theory

Relativity and Quantum Mechanics
• It was hard to merge relativity and Quantum Mechanics.• Physicists were puzzled by the energy relation in relativity.• When they solved the wave equations they got solutions
with both positive and negative energy.o And they could show they had to keep the negative energy
solutions.
• Dirac made a big effort to find an equation that was linearin the energy (operator).o He found a matrix equation that represents electrons wello But it still had negative energy solutions.
