[edit] Diagram

I'm not sure I understand the diagram in the article. It makes it appear as if the world lines of the accelerating particles are outside of the light cone?? (unless I'm missing something fundamental, which may be likely)

If the diagram is correct, then can someone explain what a particle at rest would look like within the diagram? Dmitry Brant (talk) 13:25, 9 April 2008 (UTC) Never mind; I misunderstood the nature of the diagram. Sorry! Dmitry Brant (talk) 13:43, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
