These videos are taken from a lecture course on Modern Physics I taught at the Catholic University of Korea in Spring 2016.

In this class we go through three thought experiments which determine the (unique) parameters for the effects of length contraction, time dilation and relative simultaneity which are consistent with the postulates of Special Relativity.

First thought experiment: 00:56
Second thought experiment: 12:16
Third thought experiment: 21:31
Calculation of the parameters: 31:05
