The physical meaning of synchronization and simultaneity in Special Relativity

Rodrigo de Abreu

Based on two previous papers, the physical meaning of synchronization and simultaneity as is presented in Einstein's Special Relativity paper of 1905 is reconsidered. We follow Ein…

Deduction of Lorentz Transformation from the existence of absolute rest. Deduction of the speed of light in any frame of reference

Rodrigo de Abreu

We begin by admitting the following: (i) there is a frame of reference where the speed of light is the same in any direction (that speed is c) (ii) the average speed of light on a…

A relativistic time variation of matter/space fits both local and cosmic data

Alfredo Gouveia Oliveira, Rodrigo de Abreu

Cosmic observations strongly support a time varying scenario for matter/space. On the other hand, so far, observations at solar system scale failed to identify any time variation o…

The Energy-Entropy Principle

Rodrigo de Abreu

In this paper, through a criticism of what we call the paradigmatic view of thermodynamics, we aim at showing a new perspective attained in this matter. The generalization of heat…

The First Principle of Thermodynamics and the Non-Separability of the Quantities "Work" and "Heat": The adiabatic piston controversy

Rodrigo de Abreu

The impossibility of separating into work and heat the energy transmitted between two subsystems through a movable piston is analyzed in this article. The process here described, a…

Cosmological Principle and Relativity - Part I

A. Gouveia Oliveira, Rodrigo de Abreu

The absence of an identified consequence at solar system scale of the cosmological space expansion is usually explained considering that space expansion does not affect local anyso…
