Are superluminal Lorentz contraction velocities real velocities?

Starting with the equation for Lorentz contraction $L = sqrt{1-(v/c)^2}L'$ and making the substitution $v=at$ (be sure to see a better substitution two paragraphs down) then taking the...

Gauge covariant derivative and Leibniz rule

Let's say I've got 2 different fields $a, b$ and I want to compute its covariant derivative $D_mu = partial_mu + iA_mu^a T^a$ where ${A_mu^a}$ is the...

I'm confused about electric flux?

In a previous physics class, I learned that the electric flux was $vec{E}cdotvec{A}$ (dot product), and hence the unit is $Nm^2/C$. But in my electromagnetics book, it says the unit...

Complex-valued spacetime curvature

I've just been reading about tachyons and tachyonic fields, and although they probably don't exist/are wildly unstable, I'm curious: What does imaginary mass do to spacetime curvature? Does ‘complex valued...

Degeneracy despite Interaction

Lifting of degeneracies of a composite system through interactions among its constituents is a generic theme of all physical systems - from splitting of $s-$orbital energies when two hydrogen...
