In this video we continue the Particle Zoo series by exploring relativistic concepts. We cover rest mass, total relativistic energy, the increase of mass with velocity, and time dilation. We introduce the gamma factor, show how relativistic effects allow for antiparticle creation, and derive gamma using a moving train thought experiment. We also show how relativistic kinetic energy reduces to the classical formula at low speeds.
