Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: post- prefix, Newtonian adj.

Etymology: < post- prefix + Newtonian adj.

Occurring or existing subsequent to the life or work of Sir Isaac Newton (1642–1727); spec. (Physics) involving or taking into account relativistic effects, esp. as a minor correction in calculations based on pre-relativistic Newtonian principles.
