Kinematics and Lobachevsky's Geometry; KINEMATIKA I GEOMETERIYA LOBACHEVSKOGO

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4752186
The relativistic kinematical problems are formulated in terms of the velocity space with Lobachevsky's metric. The application of a 6perbolic geometry to kinematics is illustrated by some examples. Treatment of the rotation of a top and the kinematics of a particle spin in Lobachevsky's space is shown. The connection between the spin transformation and the parallel displacement in this space is outlined. (auth)
