Home > Lorentz National Park

The Lorentz National Park is located in Indonesia, in the province of Papua. With an area of 25 thousand km² it is the largest national park in South-East Asia.

The national park contains many unmapped, unexplored and original plants, animals and native cultural heritage. In 1999 the national park was accepted as World Heritage by the UNESCO.

The area also contains mineral deposits, and large-scale mining operations are active in the surroundings of the national park. By contrast, the Lorentz National Park Conservation Project comprises a community initiative for the conservation of communal and ecological heritage surrounding the Lorentz National Park areas.

Lorentz transformationThe Lorentz transformation (LT), named after its discoverer, the Dutch physicist and mathematician Hendrik Antoon Lorentz ( 1853- 1928), forms the basis for the special theory of relativity, which has been introduced to remove contradictions between the t	Lorentz forceIn physics, the Lorentz force is the force exerted on a charged particle in an electromagnetic field. The particle will experience an electric force q E and a magnetic force q v × B . Combined they give the Lorentz force equation : where E is the electric	Lorentz-Fitzgerald contraction hypothesisThe Lorentz-Fitzgerald contraction hypothesis was proposed by Fitzgerald and independently proposed and extended by Lorentz to explain the negative result of the Michelson-Morley experiment, which attempted to detect Earth's motion relative to the luminif
Lorentz groupThe Lorentz group is the group of all Lorentz transformations of Minkowski spacetime. It is the subgroup of the Poincare group consisting of all isometries that leave the origin fixed. Sometimes this group is referred to as the homogeneous Lorentz group w	Lorentzian functionThe Lorentzian function is the function : It is a generalisation of the Cauchy distribution, which is equivalent to the Lorentzian function when and. The name "Lorentzian function" is used in the context of statistics and chemistry. In chemistry, the "Lor	Lorentz covarianceLorentz covariance is a term in physics for the property of space time, that in two different frames of reference, located at the same event in spacetime but moving relative to each other, all non-gravitational laws must make the same predictions for iden
