三维加速度
在牛顿力学与狭义相对论中,三维加速度或坐标加速度的定义保持一致。
a
=
(
a
x
,
a
y
,
a
z
)
{\displaystyle \mathbf {a} =\left(a_{x},\ a_{y},\ a_{z}\right)}
是速度
u
=
(
u
x
,
u
y
,
u
z
)
{\displaystyle \mathbf {u} =\left(u_{x},\ u_{y},\ u_{z}\right)}
对坐标时间的一阶导数 ,亦即是位置
r
=
(
x
,
y
,
z
)
{\displaystyle \mathbf {r} =\left(x,\ y,\ z\right)}
对坐标时间的二阶导数:
a
=
d
u
d
t
=
d
2
r
d
t
2
{\displaystyle \mathbf {a} ={\frac {d\mathbf {u} }{dt}}={\frac {d^{2}\mathbf {r} }{dt^{2}}}}
。
然而在另一相异的惯性参考系中做三维加速度测量时,两项理论的预测就出现重大歧异。牛顿力学中,时间是绝对的(
t
′
=
t
{\displaystyle t'=t}
),采用的惯性系转换式为伽利略转换 。因此,从伽利略转换推导而得的三维加速度在所有惯性系中皆相同:[ 4]
a
=
a
′
{\displaystyle \mathbf {a} =\mathbf {a} '}
。
相反地,在狭义相对论中,
r
{\displaystyle \mathbf {r} }
与
t
{\displaystyle t}
两者皆与洛伦兹转换相依,因此三维加速度
a
{\displaystyle \mathbf {a} }
及其分量在不同惯性系也各不相同。当惯性系间的相对速度是沿着x轴,即
v
=
v
x
{\displaystyle v=v_{x}}
(
γ
v
=
1
/

−
v

/

{\displaystyle \gamma _{v}=1/{\sqrt {1-v^{2}/c^{2}}}}
为相对应的洛伦兹因子 ),洛伦兹转换式为:

为了求得三维加速度的转换式,必须分别对洛伦兹转换式中的空间坐标

及

做时间

此转换式表示:若有两惯性系

与

系中测到一物体瞬时速度为

、加速度为

系中则具有瞬时速度

、加速度

。一如速度加成式,这些加速度转换式可保证一物体无法加速到光速 ,遑论超过光速 。
四维加速度
若改采用四维矢量 ,即

。若只考虑空间分量且速度是沿着x方向(即

),且只考虑与速度平行(x方向)或垂直(y、z方向)的加速度,则关系式可简化为:[ 15] [ 16]

另外固有加速度与四维加速度的长度也有密切关系:如前述,四维加速度的长度为不变量,可在瞬间共动惯性系

{\displaystyle |\mathbf {A} '|={\sqrt {0+\left.\mathbf {a} ^{0}\right.^{2}}}=|\mathbf {a} ^{0}|}
。 4b
因此四维加速度长度对应到固有加速度长度。将此结果与式(3 )结合,可得到将

与

从这里可得到式(4a ),只要再次采用如下条件:速度沿着x方向(
u

{\displaystyle u=u_{x}}
),只考虑与速度平行(x方向)或垂直(y、z方向)的加速度。

{\displaystyle \mathbf {F} =\gamma \left((\mathbf {f} \cdot \mathbf {u} )/c,\ \mathbf {f} \right)}
。四维力、四维加速度(式(2 ))以及不变质量

则具有如下关系式:
F

{\displaystyle \mathbf {F} =m\mathbf {A} }
[ 24] ;因此可得[ 25]

牛顿力学中,将质量简单定义为三维力与三维加速度的比值;此想法在狭义相对论中变为拙劣,因为这样定义的质量将与速度的大小及方向相依。是故如下曾出现在旧版教科书中的质量定义在当代已舍弃不用:[ 28] [ 29] [ H 6]

洛伦兹提到了他无法决定

{\displaystyle \epsilon =1}
,则他的关系式会跟相对论关系式一模一样。
1904年:洛伦兹[ H 6] 以更详尽的方法推导初上述关系式,采用了静止于系统

1905年:阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦 [ H 10] 以其狭义相对论为基础,推导出运动方程 。此表示出等价惯性系之间的关系,而不需要用到机械式乙太。爱因斯坦总结到,在一瞬时惯性系

1909年:马克斯·玻恩 [ H 11] denotes the motion with constant magnitude of Minkowski's acceleration vector as "hyperbolic motion" (德语:Hyperbelbewegung ), in the course of his study of rigidly accelerated motion . He set

Born derived the hyperbolic equation

{\displaystyle x^{2}-c^{2}t^{2}=\xi ^{2}}
, and defined the magnitude of acceleration as

{\displaystyle b=c^{2}/\xi }
. He also noticed that his transformation can be used to transform into a "hyperbolically accelerated reference system" (德语:hyperbolisch beschleunigtes Bezugsystem ).
1909年:古斯塔夫·黑格洛兹 [ H 14] extends Born's investigation to all possible cases of rigidly accelerated motion, including uniform rotation.
1910年:阿诺·索末菲 [ H 15] brought Born's formulas for hyperbolic motion in a more concise form with
l

{\displaystyle l=ict}
as the imaginary time variable and
φ
{\displaystyle \varphi }
as an imaginary angle:

z
=

,
l
=

sin
φ
{\displaystyle x=r\cos \varphi ,\quad y=y',\quad z=z',\quad l=r\sin \varphi }
He noted that when
r
,
y
,
z
{\displaystyle r,y,z}
are variable and
φ
{\displaystyle \varphi }
is constant, they describe the worldline of a charged body in hyperbolic motion. But if
r
,
y
,
z
{\displaystyle r,y,z}
are constant and
φ
{\displaystyle \varphi }
is variable, they denote the transformation into its rest frame.
1911年:索末菲[ H 3] explicitly used the expression "proper acceleration" (德语:Eigenbeschleunigung ) for the quantity

{\displaystyle {\dot {v}}={\dot {v}}_{0}\left(1-\beta ^{2}\right)^{3/2}}
, which corresponds to (4a ), as the acceleration in the momentary inertial frame.
1911年:黑格洛兹[ H 4] explicitly used the expression "rest acceleration" (德语:Ruhbeschleunigung ) instead of proper acceleration. He wrote it in the form
γ

and
γ

{\displaystyle \gamma _{t}^{0}=\beta ^{2}\gamma _{t}}
which corresponds to (4a ), where
β
{\displaystyle \beta }
is the Lorentz factor and
γ

{\displaystyle \gamma _{l}^{0}}
or
γ

{\displaystyle \gamma _{t}^{0}}
are the longitudinal and transverse components of rest acceleration.
1911年:马克斯·冯·劳厄 [ H 2] derived in the first edition of his monograph "Das Relativitätsprinzip" the transformation for three-acceleration by differentiation of the velocity addition

equivalent to (1c ) as well as to Poincaré (1905/6). From that he derived the transformation of rest acceleration (equivalent to 4a ), and eventually the formulas for hyperbolic motion which corresponds to (8 ):

equivalent to (6a ) as well as to Poincaré (1905).
1912年-1914年:弗里德里希·科特勒 [ 51] obtained general covariance of Maxwell's equations , and used four-dimensional Frenet-Serret formulas to analyze the Born rigid motions given by Herglotz (1909). He also obtained the proper reference frames for hyperbolic motion and uniform circular motion.
1913年:冯·劳厄[ H 7] replaced in the second edition of his book the transformation of three-acceleration by Minkowski's acceleration vector for which he coined the name "four-acceleration" (德语:Viererbeschleunigung ), defined by
Y
˙
=
d
Y

τ
{\displaystyle {\dot {Y}}={\frac {dY}{d\tau }}}
with

as four-velocity. He showed, that the magnitude of four-acceleration corresponds to the rest acceleration

which corresponds to (4b ). Subsequently, he derived the same formulas as in 1911 for the transformation of rest acceleration and hyperbolic motion, and the hyperbolic reference frame.
