Description:

In his 1905 STR paper Einstein said, "a is a function phi(v) at present unknown"; which shows that he didn't know that phi(v) denotes the ratio of lengths in the Y and Z axes rather than the ratio of rates of two systems. There is no symbol in his paper for the ratio of lengths in the axis of motion, so, by omission, its value is unity; which contradicts the LTE he tried and failed to derive. He wrote "c2 - v2" until he inserted Poincare's LTE with its expression, "1 - v2/c2", which he then used everywhere but once in the rest of his paper. This shows that he copied the LTE from Poincare's "Sur la Dynamique des l' Electron" while revising his proof copy. There are many other things that collectively prove that EINSTEIN DIDN'T UNDERSTAND the MATHEMATICAL or physical MEANINGS OF HIS OWN STR EQUATIONS and if you are a physicist NEITHER DO YOU.
