The Real Consequence of the Speed of Light Postulate: Failure of the Special Relativity

Authors: Radwan M. Kassir

In a previous study,[1] the Lorentz transformation was shown to be merely a set of restricted particular equations, the application of which to events having restricted coordinates―essential for the interpretation of time dilation and length contraction―resulted in mathematical contradictions. In this paper, the particular terms, erroneously generalized in the Lorentz transformation, are replaced with their correct expressions, resulting in a transformation conforming to the speed of light postulate, but having detrimental consequences on the Special Relativity predictions. The essential anomaly in the Lorentz time transformation equations leading to their fatal contradictions is identified, and the Special Relativity “established” predictions turn out to be overwhelmingly refuted.
