Is there any online sources that talks of comparing realtivity to lorenz contractions and also string theory? Seems like 'space-time curvature' should be chucked away. Or is it just because its a useful mathematical model / learning feature, of are they trying to say thats what we should think physically exists?
You're comparing apples to oranges when talking of relativity to string theory.
Hmmmmm. I was under the impression string thories were relativtically invarient.
I'm thinking more of scale of influence. Relativity makes no assumptions as to the composition of matter, for example.
