Just asking for some opinions, as some good inputs are always
valuable...

I'm working on a theory, where I use another representation of
relativity. I stay in line with all known scientific facts, and please
just see my theory as a transformation of relativity only. -It's just
another way of thinking, and not at all an attempt to invalidate known
scientific facts.

But I just have the viewpoint, that the same things can be said in
different ways. I do know the usual 4-vector representation very well,
but I just have another idea for another representation:

Simply using "Proper Time" on the axis, which is usually considered as
the "Time Axis". That's different, unusual and it will "probably look
very wrong" for most people, at least at a first glance. But honestly,
I think, that I can get something useful out of it. And it's the same
with the momentum-energy vectors: I simply use m (mass) instead of E
(energy) on the main axis, and of course, I also know that this is
very unsual, I know that.

To be very short: I'm trying with vectors like this: (c*"proper
time",x,y,z) and (m*c,p_x,p_y,p_z) instead of the usual representation
with (c*t,x,y,z) and (E/c,p_x,p_y,p_z).

Have you "pro's" seen something simiar earlier, and if so, then what
was the outcome? -Could it be used for something, and if not, then why
not?

Have you read this book?
