On the temperature of the moving rod

arXiv:0708.4193

Abstract

In this paper the Lorentz transformation for temperature is derived and discussed. Considering the hyperbolic heat transport equation it is shown that T(prim) = gamma T, where gamma is the Lorentz factor, T denotes the temperature in the rest system and T(prim) is the temperature in the moving system (rod).
