Special Relativity Predictions Using The Derivative

Authors: Andrew Banks

Assume a light pulse is emitted from the origins of two frames, F and F’ that are in relative motion, when the origins are common. Based on the relativity and light postulates of special relativity (SR), all light beams travel at c. Therefore, the light pulse expands spherically from the origin of F if and only if it expands spherically from the origin of F’. However, by using the derivative, this paper will report a mathematical violation of this logic. Additionally, it will be proven SR predicts one spherical light wave (SLW) moves two different directions along a single line.
