Classical Relativistic Many-Body Dynamics [E-Book] / by M. A. Trump, W. C. Schieve.
in this work, we must therefore assume several abstract concepts that hardly need defending at this point in the history of mechanics. Most notably, these include the concept of the point particle and the concept of the inertial observer. The study of the relativistic particle system is undertaken h...
