摘要
讨论了高速运动物体上面元的朝向与可见性的关系.用狭义相对论进行了简单的理论计算,结果表明高速运动物体的可见部分正是经"Terrell转动"后"朝向"观察者的部分,该结论体现了狭义相对论的完美和对称.
The relationship between the orientation and the visibility of a certain point on the surface of a high-speed object is discussed.Some simple reasoning and calculation are processed with the special theory of realtivity,which indicates that the visual parts of a high-speed object are just the parts that are 'toward'the observer after the 'Terrell rotation'.This result illustrates the perfection and symmetry of the special theory of relativity.
