Description
I show the formulation of de Sitter Special Relativity (dS-SR) based on Dirac-Lu-Zou-Guo's discussions. dS-SR quantum mechanics is formulated, and the dS-SR Dirac equation for hydrogen is suggested. The equation in the earth-QSO framework reference is solved by means of the adiabatic approach. It's found that the fine-structure constant' α in dS-SR varies with time. By means of the t-z relation of the ΛCDM model, α's time-dependency becomes redshift z-dependent. The dS-SR's predictions of Δα/α agree with data of spectra of 143 quasar absorption systems, the dS-space-time symmetry is SO (3, 2) (i.e., anti-dS group) and the universal parameter R (de Sitter ratio) in dS-SR is estimated to be R ≅ 2.73 x 1012 ly. The effects of dS-SR become visible at the cosmic space-time scale (i.e., the distance ≥ 109 ly). At that scale, dS-SR is more reliable than Einstein SR. The α-variation with time is evidence of SR with de Sitter symmetry. (author)
