some issues from Brian Chiang

See emails from 2018:

On page 20 of your SR notes, on the left-hand column, equation 4.6, the linear coefficient Lx't is written as equal to γβ, but it should be equal to -γβ, as written in the explanation and equations before and after it.

Also on page 20, the final result of the equation in the dagger-marked footnote has the subscripts of the column coefficients rendered in normal size, making it seem like the subscripts themselves are coefficients in the expression.

I just wanted to let you know that in your SR notes, on page 19, line 7 of the last full paragraph on the left column, you define γ incorrectly as γ ≡ (1 − u2)−1/2, rather than as γ ≡ (1 − u2/c2)−1/2.
