For the main encyclopedia article, see Special relativity Albert Einstein during a lecture in Vienna in 1921 In physics special relativity is a fundamental theory about space and time , developed by Albert Einstein in 1905 as a modification of Galilean relativity . (See " History of special relativity " for a detailed account and the contributions of Hendrik Lorentz and Henri Poincaré .) It was able to explain some pressing theoretical and experimental issues in the physics of the late 19th century involving light and electrodynamics , such as the failure of the 1887 Michelson–Morley experiment , which aimed to measure differences in the relative speed of light due to the Earth's motion through the hypothetical luminiferous aether , which was then considered to be the medium of propagation of electromagnetic waves such as light.

    Extractions: Einstein's theory of Special Relativity, he did not deal with accelerated motions or gravitation. These were treated in his General Theory Of Relativity which Einstein published in 1915. The General Theory presented gravity in a completely new way. Gravitation was viewed in the General Theory as a geometric property of space rather then a force between bodies. From the point of view of General Relativity, space becomes curved in the presence of matter, and bodies followed the least resistance along these curves. Einstein's Theory sounded very strange at the time when he first published it, but it explained many things that the Newtonian law of gravity could not explain, such as the orbital motions of the planet mercury, where its nearest approach to the sun (its perihelion) advanced steadily in the course of its ongoing revolutions around the sun. These small perturbations in mercury's orbit could not be explained by Newtonian Laws. However, Einstein's General Theory supplied the answer by showing that the perihelion of any revolving body should have a motion beyond that predicted by Newton's law. The calculations derived from Einstein's new theory, when now applied to the planet mercury, explained the shift of mercury's perihelion exactly. From Wikipedia: General relativity (GR) or general relativity theory (GRT) is a fundamental physical theory of gravitation which corrects and extends Newtonian gravitation, especially at the macroscopic level of stars or planets.

Special relativity incorporates the principle that the speed of light is the same for all inertial observers regardless of the state of motion of the source.

    Extractions: Straight worldlines (unaccelerated particles) remain straight in this process. Thus Newton's First Law is preserved, and non-accelerated worldlines are special. This Galilean transformation does not affect the time. Thus two observers moving with respect to each other can still agree on the time, and thus the distance between two objects, which is the difference in their positions measured at equal times, can be defined. This allowed Newton to describe an inverse square law for gravity. But Galilean transformations do not preserve velocity. Thus the statement "The speed limit is 70 mph" does not make sense but don't try this in court. According to relativity, this must be re-expressed as "The magnitude of the relative velocity between your car and the pavement must be less than 70 mph". Relative velocities are OK.

37. Revolutionary Software, Inc.
    A very simple quasi-relational DBMS based on Unix shell commands.  
    http://www.rdb.com/
    
    Extractions: Unix provides hundreds of programs that can be piped together to easily perform almost any function imaginable. Nothing comes close to providing the functions that come standard with Unix. Programs and philosophies carried over from other systems put walls between the user and Unix, and the power of Unix is thrown away. The shell, extended with a few relational operators, is the fourth-generation database scripting language most appropriate to the Unix environment. /rdb® is a high-performance relational database management and application development system designed for Unix and implemented as a suite of 131 shell-level commands built with a callable API library. Unlike other fourth generation systems, /rdb® is an extension of the Unix environment, making available the full power of Unix during application development and usage. Database utilities such as sorttable, jointable, row, column and compute are programs invoked by the shell reading tables from the standard input and writing tables to the standard output. All of the relational operators are included, as well as several indexing methods, a vi-like forms editor, a powerful report generator, menus, and a number of data transformation utilities, including all the math library functions. /rdb® stores tables in efficient variable length ASCII files, making them accessible to ordinary Unix commands.

    Extractions: A generalization of the notion of ellipsoids to curved Riemannian spaces is given and the possibility of using it in describing the shapes of rotating bodies in general relativity is examined. As an illustrative example, stationary, axisymmetric perfect-fluid spacetimes with a so-called confocal inside ellipsoidal symmetry are investigated in detail under the assumption that the 4-velocity of the fluid is parallel to a timelike Killing vector field. A class of perfect-fluid metrics representing interior NUT-spacetimes is obtained along with a vacuum solution with a non-zero cosmological constant.
