Every general law of nature must be so constituted that it is transformed into a law of exactly the same form when, instead of the space-time variables x, y, z, t of the original co-ordinate system K, we introduce new space-time variables x’, y’, z’, t’ of a co-ordinate system K’. In this connection the relation between the ordinary and the accented magnitudes is given by the Lorentz transformation. Or in brief, general laws of nature are co-variant with respect to Lorentz transformations.
A new frame for these laws.
