Abstract

In the present paper we dispel the belief that the transformation developed by W. Voigt is equivalent to the Lorentz transformation. Throughout the history, there have been several arguments, both pro and con. In the current paper we present an argument that has not been shown before aimed at settling the dispute. We demonstrate that the Voigt transformation is not equivalent to the Lorentz transformation.
