Abstract

A relativistic theory has as its aim to show that it is possible to give the general laws of physics a form independent of any observer, that is, of the adopted frame of reference. Up to now, this objective has not been completely realized, even from the general theory of relativity. In this chapter, a relativistic theory is intended as a theory for which we have defined: 1. The class ℜ of the frames of reference in which the physical laws have the same form, 2. The transformations of space and time coordinates in going from a frame of reference belonging to ℜ to another one in the same class, 3. The physical laws relative to any frame of reference of ℜ, 4. The transformation formulae of the physical quantities appearing in physical laws upon changing the frame of reference in the class ℜ.
