WordDefinition
relativitynoun(uncountable) The state of being relative to something else; the absence of universally applicable rules or standards; relativism; (countable) an instance of this.
theory of relativitynoun(physics) The theories of special relativity and general relativity, two theories in physics developed mainly by Albert Einstein at the beginning of the 20th century from which several important results such as the equivalence of matter and energy and the Einstein field equations are derived.
einsteinianismnounThe physics of Albert Einstein, including general relativity and concepts that go beyond classical Newtonian mechanics.
einsteinnounAlbert Einstein, the world-famous 20th-century theoretical physicist who developed the theory of relativity.
special relativitynoun(relativity) A theory that (neglecting the effects of gravity) reconciles the principle of relativity with the observation that the speed of light is constant in all frames of reference.
general relativitynoun(relativity) A theory extending special relativity and uniformly accounting for gravity and accelerated frames of reference, postulating that space-time curves in the presence of mass.
einstein-szilárd refrigeratornounSynonym of Einstein refrigerator.
spacetimenoun(uncountable, physics) The four-dimensional continuum of the three spatial dimensions plus time.
relativistic mechanicsnoun(physics) The mechanics of objects moving at speeds comparable to the speed of light; per special and general relativity.
einstein barriernounThe speed of light viewed as an uncrossable barrier to acceleration from subluminal and superluminal speeds in special relativity.
einstein field equationnoun(relativity) A symmetric 4 × 4 tensor equation in general relativity in which the gravitational force is described as a curvature of spacetime caused by matter and energy.
einstein constantnounAlternative form of Einstein's constant. [(physics) Any of several mathematical constants associated with Albert Einstein's work.]
principle of relativitynoun(relativity) The principle that only the motion of objects relative to one another can be measured, and that there is no absolute frame of reference.
lorentz transformationnoun(mathematics, relativity) A transformation relating the spacetime coordinates of one frame of reference to another in special relativity.
einstein's constantnounThe cosmological constant.
relativistic massnoun(physics) The increased mass of an object moving at relativistic speed relative to an observer.
cosmological constantnoun(physics) A term added by Albert Einstein to his equations of general relativity in order to account for a supposed static universe, since used to describe vacuum energy as a form of dark energy.
supergravitynoun(quantum mechanics, relativity) A field theory combining supersymmetry and general relativity.
supergravitationnounSynonym of supergravity.
spacetime physicsnoun(uncountable, physics) The physics of the four dimensional continuum and the theory of relativity.
