Using Three-Dimensional Spacetime Diagrams in Special Relativity
 The three-dimensional spacetime diagrams below are used as examples in a recent paper.  Clicking on each image will take you to a page containing that image as a rotatable Java applet. 
 (We are working to improve the quality of these applets.
Comments welcome.)
Read the full paper here for a more complete discussion of each diagram. These figures were originally drawn using Mathematica, then converted to Java applets using JavaView.
