Testing the SR Concept Mutual Time Dilation |
For two observers A and B in relative motion SR claims that A predicts that
B's clock is running slow by a factor of 1/gamma and B predicts that A's
clock is running slow by a factor of 1/gamma. The following proposed
experiments are designed to test the validity of this claim:
1. A send a TV picture of his clock to B and B send a TV picture of his
clock to A.
2. A determines the ratio of B's TV clock second to his actual clock second
and call this ratio as R_ab.
3. B determines the ratio of A's TV clock second to his actual clock second
and call this ratio as R_ba.
4. If mutual time dilation is true then R_ab=R_ba.

This has already been done without the lame idea of TV pictures and
little WalMart alarm clocks. Mutual time dilation is observed in HEP
collisions at particle labs.

Yes, but if you're just comparing the arrival time of
pictures of clocks to your own clock, what you're
measuring is relativistic Doppler, not time dilation,
and the intervals could be either longer or shorter
than your own clock's (red-shifted or blue-shifted).
In any case, the effect is symmetric. If I think your
clock is blue-shifted, you think mine is blue-shifted
and by the same amount.

Give us an actual example that the effect is symmetric. The GPS clock and

1. I communicate with a moving aircraft using a

me at 300 m/sec. The signal the aircraft receives
is at frequency 1.000001 GHz, and the signal I receive
from the aircraft, broadcast at 1 GHz, appears to me

2. I communicate with a moving aircraft using a

from me at 300 m/sec. The signal the aircraft receives
is at frequency 0.999999 GHz, and the signal I receive
from the aircraft, broadcast at 1 GHz, appears to me
to be at 0.999999 GHz.
The GPS clock and

Weren't you asking an SR question? That is not
a situation in which SR applies. SR makes no predictions
about the gravitational effect which causes most
of that time difference, and which is not symmetric.

So you are saying that the TV clock will run fast when it is approaching you
and it is running slow when it is receding from you???? I don't think so.
Besides satellite TV wouldn't work if what you say is true. Clocks in
relative motion will not change rate. They will change rate after
acceleration.
In any case, the effect is symmetric. If I think your

Here you are talking about Doppler shift which is sensitive to direction of
motion. Time dilation is not sensitve to direction of relative motion.

from me at 300 m/sec. The signal the aircraft receives

Weren't you asking an SR question? That is not

about the gravitational effect which causes most

Wrong The SR effect on the GPS clock is calculated using the SR formula and
it is
7 us/day running slow compared to the ground clock. The gravitational
potential effect is calculkated separately and it is 45 us/day running fast
compared to the ground clock. The combined effects is 38 us/day running
fast.
Besides if what you said is true then SR shouldn't work on earth because the
earth is in a gravitational field. Also, there is no actual example of SR
symmetry. All clocks in relative motion are running at different rates.

Yes, I am talking about the effect that relates the interval

clock), to the interval at which those events are
received. That is the Doppler effect.
Time dilation is not sensitve to direction of relative motion.
That's correct, but the relation between interval of transmitted
events from a moving platform and interval of receipt of those
events is given by relativistic Doppler, and *does* depend
on direction of relative motion.
2. I communicate with a moving aircraft using a
radio of frequency 1 GHz. The aircraft is moving away

But Doppler shift is the effect which describes the
relationship between those two frequencies.

Missed it, I guess. Anyway, it's wrong. TV is not going to
be bothered by a few nanoseconds of what is called
"time jitter". There are much larger jitter effects in the
communication circuitry, and the system is designed to
accomodate them.

So its time jitter even if the relative velocity is a significant portion
that of the speed of light?
Also my proposed experiments is designed to test the SR concept of symmetry.
Do you disagree with that?

experiments are designed to test the validity of this claim:
1. A send a TV picture of his clock to B and B send a TV
picture
of
his
clock to A.
2. A determines the ratio of B's TV clock second to his
actual
clock
second
and call this ratio as R_ab.
3. B determines the ratio of A's TV clock second to his
actual
clock
second
and call this ratio as R_ba.
4. If mutual time dilation is true then R_ab=R_ba.
Yes, but if you're just comparing the arrival time of
pictures of clocks to your own clock, what you're
measuring is relativistic Doppler, not time dilation,
and the intervals could be either longer or shorter
than your own clock's (red-shifted or blue-shifted).
Sure it is time dilation.
Have you heard of "blue-shift" and "red-shift"? Do
you think that time-dilation predicts both of those
effects?
So you are saying that the TV clock will run fast when it is
approaching
you
and it is running slow when it is receding from you???? I don't
think
so.
Besides satellite TV wouldn't work if what you say is true. Clocks
in
relative motion will not change rate. They will change rate after
acceleration.
Why no reply on this??
Missed it, I guess. Anyway, it's wrong. TV is not going to
be bothered by a few nanoseconds of what is called
"time jitter". There are much larger jitter effects in the
communication circuitry, and the system is designed to
accomodate them.
So its time jitter even if the relative velocity is a significant portion
that of the speed of light?
You said "if this was true, satellite TV wouldn't work".
You weren't talking about relativistic satellites,
you were talking about the current generation of
satellite TV. They don't have significant relativistic
jitter effects.
Do try to keep your own arguments straight.
Also my proposed experiments is designed to test the SR concept of symmetry.
Do you disagree with that?
I agree that was your intention. I'm pointing out
that the only way it's a test is if you actually
DO the experiment. Thinking about it is not a test.
You seemed to be trying to claim that simply
describing it, without doing the measurement,
provided the test. It doesn't.
When I pointed that out, you seemed to think that
merely NAMING the experiment "test" made it a
test. It doesn't.

This does not establish that both observers measure the same value of shift.
In order to claim symmetry the value of the shift must be the same.

all he would need to do is get two cop cars with Doppler ladars approach each
other on a highway, with each traveling at 60 mph.
Then have them check each others speed.
They will each see the other car approaching at 120 mph.

Relative Doppler shift includes time dilation while classical Doppler

opposite in direction, both observers re-send the same TV program. By
adding the results of the signal received (synchronized with the

the time dilation. Granted technical details have to be worked out,
but this thought experiment does show that unmistakable mutual time
dilation which is forbidden by reality itself.
In any case, the effect is symmetric. If I think your
clock is blue-shifted, you think mine is blue-shifted
and by the same amount.
We thank Mr. Seto for bringing up this thought experiment to show the
absolute nonsense of SR. Remember that the twin's paradox is the
combined results of the time dilation and the principle of
relativity. To resolve this paradox, either time is not dilated or
the principle of relativity must be wrong.

Yes, brilliantly argued. I conclude therefore that it is
impossible for Doppler radar to be blue-shifted by the
same amount when it reflects off a target, and that
therefore it can't possibly work, and that nobody would
use the equation delta-f = 2v/c to model the two-way
blue-shift, because that denies physical reality.

Now they turn around with identical acceleration

It is impossible because the clock second in A's frame has different time
content (different duration) than a clock seconds in B's frame. While they
both observe red or blue shift they will not agree the shift is the same
amount as SR is predicted. This will destroy the SR assertion that all
frames are symmetrical.

It is impossible because the clock second in A's frame has different time
content (different duration) than a clock seconds in B's frame. While they
both observe red or blue shift they will not agree the shift is the same
amount as SR is predicted. This will destroy the SR assertion that all
frames are symmetrical.
All you're doing is asserting it. How is "it's true because I
say so" any sort of proof?

No, not quite. The RADAR signal was sent once and received once.
All right. Let's do your exact experiment. The

identical TV programs to each other. Each receives the

Now they turn around with identical acceleration

I am not just asserting it. Even SR says that the passage of a clock second
in B's frame correspond to the passage of less than a clock second in
observer A's frame.

Sigh....the information in the TV program (the rate of the TV clock) is not
doppler sensitive (not directional senitive). This follows from the fact
that gamma is also not directional sensitive.

Yes, in real life, this would be absurd and impossible. Therefore, a
hypothesis thoroughly embarrassing to predict such an absurd situation
must be wrong.
Thanks for coming to the only logical solution. That is the Lorentz
transform must be wrong.
Could that no-child-left-behind policy be working here?

Especially in light of the fact that it happens.

There is a completely classical version of the Doppler
effect and it too is symmetrical. Both are blue-shifted
or both are red-shifted.
In light of the fact that it's easy to see with pictures
how it happens, that it's easy to measure, and that it's
seen every day, why exactly do you think mutual blue-shifting
and mutual red-shifting are impossible? It's even
observable with sound.
The classical version is pure geometry. Have you just
proved that Euclidean geometry is absurd and wrong?

Yes, but if you're just comparing the arrival time of
pictures of clocks to your own clock, what you're
measuring is relativistic Doppler, not time dilation,
and the intervals could be either longer or shorter
than your own clock's (red-shifted or blue-shifted).
Relative Doppler shift includes time dilation while classical Doppler
shift does not. What would be interesting is that both observers do a
180 degrees turn with the same acceleration profile.
Has anyone ever suggested that acceleration can cause
the creation or anhilation of an abacus bead ? :-(
In doing so, the
symmetry still exists. After turning around with the same speed but
opposite in direction, both observers re-send the same TV program. By
adding the results of the signal received (synchronized with the
content of the program) now with the one previously, all you left is
the time dilation. Granted technical details have to be worked out,
but this thought experiment does show that unmistakable mutual time
dilation which is forbidden by reality itself.
Two equal length wires, a sack of abacus beads and an
egg timer is rather sophisticated. The GP-B team might be
able to work out the details in a few decades... given
the funding of course.
In any case, the effect is symmetric. If I think your
clock is blue-shifted, you think mine is blue-shifted
and by the same amount.
We thank Mr. Seto for bringing up this thought experiment to show the
absolute nonsense of SR. Remember that the twin's paradox is the
combined results of the time dilation and the principle of
relativity. To resolve this paradox, either time is not dilated or
the principle of relativity must be wrong.
An abacus doesn't lie. Einstein's exception to PoR:
"The special principle of relativity states that
physical laws should be the same in all inertial
reference frames, but that they may vary across
non-inertial ones. "
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principle_of_relativity
....is out of place and he likely realised it by 1920.
The laws of physics don't change unless they erronously
assumed inertial behaviour for light.

The true function of *time dilation* (imaginary time)
was stated in the 1920 paper:
<<In order to give due prominence to this relationship,
however, we must replace the usual time co-ordinate t
by an imaginary magnitude
sqrt (-1)
ct proportional to it. Under these conditions, the
natural laws satisfying the demands of the (special)
theory of relativity assume mathematical forms, in
which the time co-ordinate plays exactly the same
role as the three space co-ordinates. >>

Wrong the TV clock runs at a constant rate whether it is approaching

This is the assumption we want to test with this doable thought
experiment. If the effect is symmetric then SR is validated. If not
then the SR claim of symmetry is refuted.

Yes, and the value of that constant depends on whether
the clock is moving toward or away from you.
You're aware that this Doppler effect is measured
thousands of times a day by radar and radio
systems, right? A periodic event governed by a
highly-regulated clock circuit is received at
a different rate by objects in relative motion
to the transmitter. That different rate is predicted
by the (relativistic) Doppler equation.
In any case, the effect is symmetric. If I think your
clock is blue-shifted, you think mine is blue-shifted
and by the same amount.
This is the assumption we want to test with this doable thought
experiment. If the effect is symmetric then SR is validated.
Aside from your view of the world, how does this
"thought experiment" validate or invalidate it.
I describe a situation in which it is symmetric,
by assumption (and in accordance with experiment).
I say SR is validated.
You describe a situation and claim, without empirical
evidence, that it isn't symmetric. Then you say
it invalidates SR.
How does assuming SR to be wrong invalidate SR? Don't
you actually have to test?
Anyway, as I said, the test you describe might only
end up measuring the well-known and well-measured
Doppler effect. You need to carefully design your
experiment if you want it to measure time dilation.
