| contents | This article shows how to express relativistic concepts in a visual manner using the full power of hyperbolic trigonometric functions. Minkowski diagrams in energy-momentum space are used in conjunction with hyperbolic triangles. Elegant new derivations of the relativistic rocket equation and the relativistic Doppler effect are presented that use this visual approach. |
