Aberration and radiation pressure reflected by a moving mirror are examples of the Klein, one-way
Doppler shift, and Poincare', two-way Doppler shift, disc models of hyperbolic geometry, respectively...
What are models that they may be used to represent reality? Here is a first pass. Models are objects that can be used to represent reality by exhibiting a designated similarity to physical objects. To...
