| 1 | Scaling : the relaxation ( time-correlation ) functions ( which characterise a material 's response to changes in an applied mechanical or electromagnetic field ) , measured at different temperatures , may be made to coincide on a single ‘ master ’ curve by scaling the time axis with a temperature-dependent characteristic time . |
| 2 | A suitable Lorentz transformation makes the time axis lie along AC and then where x is the spatial coordinate of B. Then . |
