Lorentz

Lorentz is a name derived from the Roman surname, Laurentius, which mean "from Laurentum". It is the German form of Laurence. Notable people with the name include:

Lorentz (crater)

Lorentz is a huge lunar crater that lies just beyond the northwest limb of the Moon, in a region that is brought into sight of the Earth during favorable librations. This formation is nearly as large as the Mare Nectaris on the near side of the Moon, although it has not been submerged by lava as have the lunar mare. Sections of the crater floor are, however, relatively level, particularly an arc along the western rim. But this last region is still marked by a number of tiny craterlets. The remainder of the interior is rough and irregular, and marked with a multitude of impacts.

Lorentz contains a prominent crater pairing, with Nernst located just to the north of Lorentz's midpoint, and Röntgen attached to the southeastern rim of Nernst. Lying across the southern rim of Lorentz is Laue, and Avicenna lies across the northwestern rim. Near the more indeterminate eastern rim of Lorentz is Aston.

Lorentz (rapper)

Lorentz Johannes Alexander Berger, (born 28 July 1991), who uses his given name Lorentz as a stage name, is a rap artist from Stockholm, Sweden, rapping in Swedish.

Raised on Södermalm, Stockholm, he became part of the Grammis winning duo Lorentz & Sakarias together with his brother Sakarias Berger. He has also collaborated with jj, Say Lou Lou, JaQe, Duvchi, Joy. In 2014 he made his solo-debut and released his album " Kärlekslåtar" which he won a Grammis for Best HipHop/Soul of The Year for.

Usage examples of "lorentz".

It described special relativity as the invariance of physical laws under the Lorentz transformation, and my eyes were opened.

Dutch theoretical physicist Hendrick Lorentz followed the path of seeking alternative transformation laws that would do for electromagnetics what the classical transforms had done for mechanics.

These rules are the Lorentz transformations, devised by Albert Einstein to describe how space and time behave when the observer or the object observed is moving near the speed of light.

First, you may be puzzled about why the circumference of the ride is not Lorentz contracted in exactly the same way as the ruler, and hence measured by Slim to have the same length as we originally found.

Now, it would seem, we must take account of the changing circumference with changing speed due to different degrees of Lorentz contraction.

This is nothing but the Lorentz contraction discussed in Chapter 2, in which the length of an object appears shortened along the direction of its motion.

Dutch physicist Hendrik Lorentz sent Einstein a telegram informing him of the good news.

Following Lorentz, but with an aim that was general and not restricted to a subset of physics, Einstein set out to discover a system of transforms that would make this true.

What Einstein proposed was that the velocity-dependencies deduced by Lorentz were not part of some fudge-factor needed for electromagnetism, but that they expressed fundamental properties of the nature of space and time that were true universally, and hence called for a revision of mechanics.

Conceivable that Lorentz contraction not a physical fact before Michelson experiment?

No one interrupted them, however, and they went back to the Lorentz contraction equations without further interruption.
