Derivational Error of Albert Einstein

Authors: B. Ravi Sankar

The purpose of this paper is to point out a major derivational error in Albert Einstein’s 1905 paper titled “ON THE ELECTRODYNAMICS OF MOVING BODIES”. An alternate expression for coordinate transformation is derived which shows that the time co-ordinate of the moving clock cannot be expressed in terms of the temporal and spatial co-ordinate of the stationary system.

Comments: 5 Pages. Special Relativity can not be derived as shown by Einstein's 1905 paper “ON THE ELECTRODYNAMICS OF MOVING BODIES”.
