TL;DR: The Inseparability of Geometry and Physics in Experience as discussed by the authors is the main problem in presenting the work of Einstein to the physicist is to enable him to see how obstinately metaphysical he is.
Abstract: HERE is a readable book, excellently translated, for which we have again to thank Mr. H. L. Brose. Though it is called an introduction to the theory of relativity and gravitation, it is more strictly an essay on “The Inseparability of Geometry and Physics in Experience,” to quote the title of its fifth chapter. The main problem in presenting the work of Einstein to the physicist is to enable him to see how obstinately metaphysical he is.Space and Time in Contemporary Physics: An Introduction to the Theory of Relativity and Gravitation.By Prof. Moritz Schlick. Rendered into English by Henry L. Brose. With an introduction by Prof. F. A. Lindemann. Pp. xi + 89. (Oxford: At the Clarendon Press, 1920.)Price 6s. 6d. net.

TL;DR: In this article, the empirical formula proposed by J. D. Anderson et al. to reproduce the data on the Earth flyby anomalies is derived from special relativity (SR), and the transverse Doppler shift together with the addition of velocities account for the Dopperler data.
Abstract: The empirical formula proposed by J. D. Anderson et al. [1] to reproduce the data on the Earth flyby anomalies is derived from special relativity (SR). The transverse Doppler shift together with the addition of velocities account for the Doppler data. Time dilation together with the addition of velocities account for the ranging data.

TL;DR: In this article, a simple solution of the twin paradox based on special relativity is presented, which proves from the viewpoint of the traveller twin also that he or she ages less. But with that, an anomalous behaviour of rigidly connected distant clocks is also observed.
Abstract: Although it has even been experimentally confirmed that the twin who travels away and comes back will age less, a conceptually very convincing theoretical treatment of the problem is still awaited. This paper presents a very simple solution of the twin paradox based on special relativity which proves from the viewpoint of the traveller twin also that he or she ages less. But with that, an anomalous behaviour of rigidly connected distant clocks is also observed.
