Comment on Frank Wilczek's essay "Total Relativity: Mach 2004" | G. E. Hahne
; | Date: |
22 Dec 2005 | Subject: | Classical Physics; History of Physics | Abstract: | Frank Wilczek’s essay "Total Relativity: Mach 2004" (PHYSICS TODAY April, 2004, p. 10) cogently updates the status of the intuitively compelling, but partly unrealized, theory of Mach’s Principle. I think, however, that an important consequence of the Principle has been skipped: that is, the possibility of linear deformations of the internal structure of elementary particles from the Minkowski structure imposed by the local gravitational (metric) field.
