The Lorentz transformation is an essential and introductory part of any introductory course on special relativity. It is the function that allows us to take a 4-vector in one basis, usually denoted by an \(S\), and transform it into another basis, \(S^\prime\) , moving at some constant velocity \(v\) with …
