An alternative theoretical development of Special Relativity is presented in which Electrodynamics is not invoked. In deriving the Lorentz transformation in this manner, the existence of a maximal speed for all physical phenomena stands out. The mass-energy relation is also derived without reference to light.
Un développement théorique alternative de la relativité restreinte est présenté dans lequel l’électrodynamique n’est pas invoquée. En dérivant la transformation de Lorentz de cette manière, l’existence d’une vitesse maximale pour tous les phénomènes physiques ressort. La relation masse-énergie est également dérivée sans référence à la lumière.
Key words: Special Relativity; Einstein; Lorentz Transformation; Spacetime; Symmetry; Causality; Metric Tensor; Mass-Energy.
