Why we cannot have SR without GR, unless we get rid of acceleration. |
QFT won't work outside of curved space. Now it may be true that we will
need discontinuities in GR for it to work, we cannot give up curved
space completely.
http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physics/Relativity/SR/rigid_disk.html
Now, I dare you to disprove this. John Baez is certainly NOT a crank.
There is nothing essentially invalid about accelerating rotating
frames.
There is also nothing incompatible between Gravity and Thermodynamics.
However, people's minds make them incompatible because they are unable
to use their imaginations. Or more importantly, use the imagination and
skill in physics to come up with a theory compatible with our
experiences.
BTW, the reason I say Gravity and Thermodyamics is because I can show
you what ideas had to be recociled.
http://www.theory.caltech.edu/people/jhs/strings/string11.html
There's Gravity, Reference frame invariance, Electromagnetism, and
Thermodynamics to be considered. No theory has all four of these
things.
If we want a TOE, we must open our minds.

No, but you are acting like one.
You repeatedly point to Baez's page for proof by authority, without any
inclination to discuss the problem.

Title is crap. SR works fine with acceleration.

SR is a special non-acceleratory case of GR. BY DEFINITON.

Which definition would that be?

Wrong (try looking up definitions instead of making them up). SR
excludes gravitation, not acceleration.
If SR couldn't handle acceleration, then the equivalence principle
couldn't lead anywhere and GR wouldn't exist.

Only SPECIFIC cases of acceleration are handled. Try the "Rigid"
Rotating Disk. Not all accelerations are handled.

Look up the Lorentz tranformation for an acceleration.

Which is wildly different from "SR is a special non-acceleratory case

Which, while weaker, is still wrong.
