Vesselin Petkov (2009), Relativity and the Nature of Spacetime, 2nd ed. (Springer, Heidelberg 2009). Expanded and updated edition of the 2005 publication Vesselin Petkov (2009) Accelerating spaceships paradox and physical meaning of length contraction; arXiv:0903.5128 [physics.class-ph] Stephen N. Lyle (2008), Uniformly Accelerating Charged Particles. A Threat to the Equivalence Principle (Springer, Heidelberg 2008) Vesselin Petkov (2007), "On the Reality of Minkowski Space." Foundations of Physics, 37 (2007) pp. 1499-1502 (or download the PDF file here) Louis Vervoort (2000), "Bell's Theorem and Nonlinear Systems" (2000), Europhys. Lett. 50 p. 142 Anastas H. Anastassov (1993), Self-Contained Phase-Space Formulation of Quantum Mechanics as Statistics of Virtual Particles, Annuaire de l'Universite de Sofia "St. Kliment Ohridski," Faculte de Physique, Tome 81, 1993, pp. 135-163 In the paper Anastassov presents the novel idea of 4-atomism - discreteness in both space and time, more precisely, discreteness in spacetime. This seems to be a promising research direction, because it questions a fundamental continuity - continuous existence in time - at the very heart of quantum physics. Then the probabilistic behavior of the quantum object may be represented as a manifestation of a probabilistic distribution of the quantum object itself in the forever given spacetime: an electron, for instance, can be thought of as an ensemble of the points of its disintegrated worldline, which are scattered all over the spacetime region where the electron wavefunction is different from zero. Then, in the ordinary three-dimensional language, an electron would be an ensemble of constituents which appear-disappear ~10^20 times per second (the Compton frequency); and, obviously, such a "single" quantum object can pass simultaneously through all slits at its disposal in the double-slit experiments with single electrons and photons. Had Minkowski lived longer he might have described such a probabilistic spacetime structure by the mystical expression "predetermined probabilistic phenomena."
