Abstract
We investigate the question: what structures of num- bers (as physical quantities) are suitable to be used in special relativity? The answer to this question depends strongly on the auxiliary assumptions we add to the basic assumptions of special relativity. We show that there is a natural axiom system of spe- cial relativity which can be modeled even over the field of rational numbers.
