"Student Finds Fatal Flaws in Special Relativity in the 1940s" is an article by David de Hilster published on 18 December 2018 on Beyond Mainstream.
De Hilster tells the story of Ricardo Carezani, an Argentinian physics student who at roughly the age Einstein had been in 1905 spent four intense years working through special relativity. Carezani concluded not only that the theory was flawed but that a simpler set of equations — what became Autodynamics — avoided the problems he had identified.
