This chapter shows how, within the framework of special relativity, Newtonian inertial accelerations turn into mere geometrical quantities. In addition, the chapter states that labeling the points of Minkowski spacetime using curvilinear coordinates rather than Minkowski coordinates is mathematically just as simple as in Euclidean space. However, the interpretation of such a change of coordinates as passage from an inertial frame to an accelerated frame is more subtle. Hence, the chapter studies some examples of this phenomenon. Finally, it addresses the problem of understanding what the curvilinear coordinates actually represent. Or, similarly, it considers the question of how to realize them by a reference frame in actual, ‘relative, apparent, and common’ physical space.
