Relativistic Frames of Reference

From the Galilean description of motion for a frame of reference moving relative to another frame considered stationary we know that

[math]t=t'[/math]
[math]x=x'[/math]
[math]y=y'[/math]
[math]z=z'+vt[/math]


Figure 5.1.5: Initial incoming angle theta for a lab frame electron incident at 11GeV as seen in the center of mass frame.
