    "abstract": "Wigner rotations and Iwasawa decompositions are manifestations of the\ninternal space-time symmetries of massive and massless particles, respectively.\nIt is shown to be possible to produce combinations of optical filters which\nexhibit transformations corresponding to Wigner rotations and Iwasawa\ndecompositions. This is possible because the combined effects of rotation,\nphase-shift, and attenuation filters lead to transformation matrices of the\nsix-parameter Lorentz group applicable to Jones vectors and Stokes parameters\nfor polarized light waves. The symmetry transformations in special relativity\nlead to a set of experiments which can be performed in optics laboratories.",
