What is another word for lorentz transformation?
Pronunciation: [lˈɒɹɛnts tɹansfɔːmˈe͡ɪʃən] (IPA) 
Lorentz transformation, also known as Lorentz boost, refers to a mathematical formula used in special relativity theory to describe how measurements of space and time are affected by motion between two observers. The term 'Lorentz transformation' may be interchanged with other phrases such as Lorentz contraction, Lorentz-Fitzgerald contraction, Einstein's velocity addition formula, and Lorentz-Einstein transformation. Some people also use the term Lorentz factor to describe the mathematical relationship between time dilation and length contraction. The concepts described by these terms are fundamental to the understanding of modern physics theory and play a significant role in many scientific disciplines.
