On the temperature of the moving rod
M. Kozlowski, J. Marciak-Kozlowska, M. Pelc

TL;DR
This paper derives the Lorentz transformation for temperature, showing that the temperature of a moving rod increases by the Lorentz factor gamma relative to its rest temperature, based on hyperbolic heat transport equations.
Contribution
It introduces a Lorentz transformation for temperature using hyperbolic heat transport, providing a relativistic perspective on thermal behavior of moving objects.
Findings
T(prim) = gamma T, where gamma is the Lorentz factor
Temperature increases with velocity in the moving frame
Hyperbolic heat transport supports relativistic temperature transformation
Abstract
In this paper the Lorentz transformation for temperature is derived and discussed. Considering the hyperbolic heat transport equation it is shown that T(prim) = gamma T, where gamma is the Lorentz factor, T denotes the temperature in the rest system and T(prim) is the temperature in the moving system (rod).
