Abstract

Space-time algebra ( STA) is a 16-dimension geometric algebra or Clifford algebra，denoted by

Cl1，3，defined on 4-dimension real Minkowski space M4 . STA is an associative algebra ring and has the advantage

of being independent of any coordinate frames. By means of STA，a concise derivation of acceleration transformation

between two inertial frames moving in arbitrary direction is presented.

Key words： space-time algebra; special relativity; Lorentz transformation; velocity transformation; acceleration transformation
