In theoretical physics, the composition of two non-collinear Lorentz boosts results in a Lorentz transformation that is not a pure boost but is the composition of a boost and a rotation. This rotation is called Thomas rotation, Thomas–Wigner rotation or Wigner rotation. The rotation was discovered and proved by Ludwik Silberstein in his 1914 book 'Relativity', rediscovered by Llewellyn Thomas in 1926, and rederived by Wigner in 1939. Wigner acknowledged Silberstein. If a sequence of non-collinear boosts returns an object to its initial velocity, then the sequence of Wigner rotations can combine to produce a net rotation called the Thomas precession.
