Use of SR

Can anyone give examples of practical uses of SR, solving real
problems in physics rather than all these nebulous scenarios usually
debated?

Particle accelerators work relativistically. All of classical
electrodynamics can be derived from Coulomb Force and Lorentz
Invariance. SR is one of the bases of quantum field theory.
