Quantum work for deriving and explaining the Lorentz transformations — •Grit Kalies1, Duong D. Do2, and Cornelia Breitkopf3 — 1HTW University of Applied Sciences, Dresden, Germany — 2The University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia — 3Technical University of Dresden, Dresden, Germany
The Lorentz transformations of mass and time are derived and explained within the framework of quantum-process thermodynamics. To this end, we use various forms of quantum work for describing the behavior of an accelerated particle, for example an electron. We find that during acceleration, a particle does not only change its velocity and (external) motion energy, but also its internal energies and structure. A new equation for the motion energy of an object is presented, which generalizes kinetic and electromagnetic energy. We compare our results with those of special relativity and discuss various microscopic and macroscopic experiments. Since energetic explanations are provided, quantum-process thermodynamics seems well suited to establishing a direct link between classical thermodynamics and quantum physics.
