Hello folks
The constancy of the speed of light is usually mentioned as one of the
corner stones of special relativity.
How about the constancy of h bar, it is like c, a universal constant
too but it is never mentioned as a corner stone of quantum mechanics!!!
or is it too trivial to mention? is there any physical principal behind
that? or is there something special about c? a historical reason may
be?
Does the term "universal constant" necessirely mean, it is the same in
all inertial frames?
Such thoughts have been confusing me, and i could not find any answer
in any text.
I will be very appreciated for any clarification
Susy
