RaumZeitIntervall
RaumZeitIntervall is the term for the separation between two events in the four-dimensional spacetime framework of special relativity. It describes a single invariant quantity that combines spatial and temporal separations and remains unchanged under Lorentz transformations, making it a fundamental tool for understanding causality and clock synchronization.
In the common convention with the spacetime metric ds^2 = c^2 dt^2 − dx^2 − dy^2 − dz^2, the spacetime
The interval relates to other quantities: for timelike intervals, the proper time Δτ between events satisfies s
RaumZeitIntervall underpins the causal structure of spacetime, the geometry of worldlines, and practical calculations in physics,
