A Classical Replacement for Special Relativity

„Nothing astounds us more than common sense“ – Ralph Waldo Emerson.

Abstract:
The following analysis of the theory of special relativity proves conclusively that all formulas and physical effects devolve to those of classical mechanics and electrodynamics. Specifically, they identify relativistic effects as due to the Doppler modifications of wavelengths, frequencies and energies naturally occurring because of the finite velocity of light in the observer’s frame of reference.

Introduction:
This paper is based on the findings covered in previous papers, which are selectively displayed herein. The findings resolve a conflict that has been raging for over 100 years. On the one hand, we have numerous authors that have identified the obvious logical anomalies in relativity theory. On the other, the corroborative results for many aspects of the theory found in experiments such as those in the Compton effect. To this point, the efforts have been divisive, rather than towards an attempt at resolution.

The answer to this problem has been documented in a series of papers, which have been publicly available for about 8 years. It is one thing to identify the problems in relativity theory, and quite another to recognize the solution when it is provided. No doubt its simplicity is a negative factor to the generations of physicists (both supporters and detractors of relativity theory) who have been led to believe that truth is to be found only in complexity. So, at the risk of being repetitive…

Basic Arguments:
The Michelson-Morley experiment confirms that light travels in vacuo independently at a constant, c, in each inertial frame of reference. The attempt was made by A. Lorentz and A. Einstein to retain a universal aether (despite Einstein’s claim to the contrary) and establish universality for the speed of light. This was accomplished through the assumption that space, time and mass were modified in the direction of travel for an object in uniform linear motion. This assumption was adopted by the physics community, despite the obvious logical absurdities which ensued. The following shows precisely, that all of the so-called relativistic effects are simply explained through classical means [1].

Two postulates are adopted.
1. The laws of physics are the same in all inertial frames of reference (Galilean relativity).
2. The speed of light [c] is constant in equivalent inertial frames of reference but will vary according to the characteristics of the medium in which it propagates.

The first postulate was identified by C. A. Zapffe as the First Principle of Physics [2]. This is entirely in keeping with its importance, since it is difficult to understand how any meaningful physical law could exist without it. By definition, it rules out the possibility of universal absolutes with respect to physical space, time and mass.
