TL;DR
This paper examines the locality hypothesis in special relativity, proposing improvements for better understanding of concepts like coordinate velocity and the speed of light through concrete examples.
Contribution
It critically analyzes the locality hypothesis and suggests enhancements to clarify key relativistic concepts with illustrative examples.
Findings
The locality hypothesis requires refinement for better conceptual clarity.
Improved understanding of coordinate velocity and light speed concepts.
Concrete examples demonstrate the need for hypothesis modifications.
Abstract
The locality hypothesis is generally considered necessary for the study of the kinematics of non-inertial systems in special relativity. In this paper we discuss this hypothesis, showing the necessity of an improvement, in order to get a more clear understanding of the various concepts involved, like coordinate velocity and standard velocity of light. Concrete examples are shown, where these concepts are discussed.
