How did you find PF?
I was looking for opinions on how acceleration plays a role in relativistic effects (unrelated to gravity), for example time dilation of two low mass objects accelerating in a vacuum.
I am a math PhD working in software/technology who is a physics hobbyist. I’ve gone through MIT 8.01 - 8.05 courses and watched and worked through a number of additional videos and problems. My interest is mostly getting exposure to more ideas through the community. I don’t plan on trying to unify physics or explain the causes of QM or relativity :). However, it’s a very interesting subject and I just like to learn in small amounts at the periphery of my current understanding.

Hello, I’m joining from Turkey and I’m 28 years old. I discovered my interest in science through a YouTube video (@Veritasium) , and everything I’ve learned since then excites me so much that I feel like a child wanting to share every new piece of knowledge with those around me. Although I don’t yet have full mastery of mathematical formulas or physical laws, my passion for learning constantly drives me to explore and understand more. No matter how complex the world of science may be, my...
