Short example sentences

This turns out to imply that the 5th coordinate is spacelike in its signature in the metric. (17 words)

Moreover, since tachyons are constrained to the spacelike portion of the energy–momentum graph, it could not slow down to subluminal speeds. (22 words)

This is true more generally: certain pairs of "timelike" and "spacelike" quantities naturally combine on equal footing under the same Lorentz transformation. (22 words)

Longer example sentences

In special relativity, this notion is extended by adding the appropriate timelike quantity to a spacelike vector quantity, and we have 4d vectors, or " four vectors ", in Minkowski spacetime. (29 words)

For two spacelike separated events x 1 and x 2 there are inertial systems in which x 1 is first and others in which x 2 is first. (28 words)

Moreover, since tachyons are constrained to the spacelike portion of the energy–momentum graph, it could not slow down to subluminal speeds. (22 words)
