Abstract:

We reformulate Special Relativity by a quaternionic algebra on reals. Using {\em real linear quaternions}, we show that previous difficulties, concerning the appropriate transformations on the

3+1

space-time, may be overcome. This implies that a complexified quaternionic version of Special Relativity is a choice and not a necessity.
