[General] STR twin Paradox

[Chip Akins]

Hi Grahame

 

Thank you.  

 

I hope that you are mistaken, and that there is a way to eventually dispel
myth and obstacles so we can build a better foundation of physics.  History
has shown humanity accomplishing such changes many times.  But we have been
stymied, or “hogtied” as you say by a couple of theories, for more than 100
years now, and no immediate resolution in sight.

 

But I remain optimistic, principally because the number of voices,
recognizing the current set of problems, is increasing, and the proofs of a
more correct resolution are becoming clearer.

 

Chip

Chip et al,

 

I've tried to stay out of this as there are numerous prior (unsupported)
assumptions flying around that generate plenty of heat but no light.

 

Chip, I agree with you 100% that effects attributed to relativity can be
explained fully by reference to mechanistic processes - there is absolutely
no need for some metaphysical property of space-time that results in objects
BEING (not just appearing) different lengths just because observers are in
different states of motion and two clocks BOTH going slower than each other.
With no logical requirement for such absurdities, belief in them makes
belief in some old guy sitting on a cloud running the universe seem pretty
tame by comparison. Those 'scientists' who deride the concept of a supreme
being (or, more reasonably, universal nonphysical consciousness) should see
to the log in their own eye before falling about in hoots over the speck in
someone else's.

 

Having said that, I'm afraid, Chip, that you are NOT going to disprove SR by
reference to the mathematics of space-time as embodied in that theory.  SR
is entirely self-consistent (even though wrong), a faultless body of math
that just doesn't happen to correspond to reality.  Hammering away at the
twins paradox - or any variation thereof - is batting on a losing wicket.
Physics is totally hogtied by the math of SR - that's why it's so difficult
to shift perceptions on the matter.

Hi John W

 

Thank you for your comments my friend.

 

One thing which seems evident from your response is that you underestimate
my understanding of SRT and relativity theory in general.

 

Both you and Viv have gone back to the same explanations, which I used to
give, to try to explain the problem.  You see I have studied relativity with
great interest for many decades. I have no problem thinking about relativity
in spacetime terms. I spent years believing the form of relativity you and
Viv suggest was correct. But once we spend enough time, effort, and thought,
trying to force fit all the pieces of a puzzle in the wrong manner, we
sometimes have an epiphany, and awakening, which helps clear the picture so
we can see how it should fit.

 

What I have found, and am attempting to share with this intelligent and
inquisitive group, is that portions of SRT are quite arbitrary, unnecessary
to explain what we see in experiment, and probably just simply wrong.  The
transformations are pre Einstein, and were appropriated by Einstein for SRT,
but the part of SRT which is unnecessary to explain what we observe, is
specifically the “all motion is relative” part.

 

John Stewart Bell apparently also ran into these issues in his research as
well.  This prompted him to write
.” I would say that the cheapest
resolution is something like going back to relativity as it was before
Einstein, when people like Lorentz and Poincar´e thought that there was an
aether – a preferred frame of reference – but that our measuring instruments
were distorted by motion in such a way that we could not detect motion
through the aether. Now, in that way you can imagine that there is a
preferred frame of reference, and in this preferred frame of reference
(some) things do go faster than light”
” Behind the apparent Lorentz
invariance of the phenomena, there is a deeper level which is not Lorentz
invariant, a pre-Einstein position of Lorentz and Poincar´e, Larmor and
Fitzgerald, was perfectly coherent, and is not inconsistent with relativity
theory. The idea that there is an aether, and these Fitzgerald contractions
and Larmor dilations occur, and that as a result the instruments do not
detect motion through the aether – that is a perfectly coherent point of
view.”

 

What Bell wrote does not outline my full perception of the subject, but it
is very close to what I have come to understand after many years of
research.  Just want to mention that I suspect there is also a specific form
of “frame dragging” caused by the gravitation of quite massive objects which
has to be considered.

 

Experiment has not verified the all motion is relative part of SRT.
Experiment has verified the transformations!

 

Euclidian space, and the constitution of light and matter, cause, quite
naturally, a form of relativity which agrees with SRT, except the notion
that all motion is relative.

 

SRT was developed with the notion that the laws of nature remain the same
for moving bodies. The form of relativity mentioned above causes the laws of
nature to remain the same for moving bodies.  This is the point.  A form of
relativity built on cause and effect is likely much more useful, and
accurate.

 

It is easy to establish cause and effect for relativity, but in that form of
relativity all motion is not relative.  Motion is related to the background
of space, in that causal form of relativity. In that form of relativity
there are no logical inconsistencies, there are no mutually exclusive
outcomes.

 

One thing which caused me considerable grief a couple of years ago was
realizing that I had built so much of my theoretical foundations on a flawed
principle. It requires a lot of work to go back and redo so much work.  I
know that this is the case for many.  But the results are worth it.

 

So John, my friend.  You may choose to disregard the suggestion that the all
motion is relative portion of SRT is in error. We all have our theoretical
preferences.  

 

I seldom make predictions, but I will make one now. 

It may not happen within our lifetimes, but I feel that experiment will
prove that all motion is not relative, and that motion is actually relative
to the background of space.

 

Chip

Dear Chip and everyone.

This is very old problem. Martin, Viv and I have all had a go at explaining
this over the last years, but all we are doing is repeating stuff which you
should be reading in the textbooks. If you analyse special relativity
properly there is no paradox here. There never was and there never will be.
The first time I met this was in third year at University. I have had exam
questions on it (though do not know if I got the answer right!).

Where you are making your mistakes is right in your first premises. You say
"For the sake of this experiment, let us imagine that we have a means of
synchronizing their clocks regardless of their separation. Or at least to
start recording data at the same time, like when each reaches a
predetermined distance from the other." At this point you are already lost.
You have assumed there is such a thing as a "place" and that one can define
a "time". You need to understand that, in relativity, one mans space is
(partly) another mans time. Each of the two can calculate what the other
sees (if they know relativity), and conclude for them the space is at
another time and vice versa. If you start from a point where you assume
there both exists an absolute space with an everywhere defined "time" and
the laws of relativity hold, then you will come to conclusions which give a
paradox, indeed. This is not a problem for relativity, which explains
perfectly what is observed (and does not have an absolute space or time),
but a problem rather for your initial assumptions, or your way of thinking. 

Regards, John.

Hi Vivian

 

I would like to return to a discussion briefly which was ensuing a couple of
months ago.

 

Thank you for the careful explanation offered in the email below.

 

However the point I was attempting to make a couple of months ago, deals
only with the concept that all motion is relative in SRT. 

 

So let us set up an experiment which excludes all effects of GRT,
acceleration, gravity etc. and only evaluates this notion of SRT that all
motion is relative.

 

We have two identical clocks, moving relative to each other.

For the sake of this experiment, let us imagine that we have a means of
synchronizing their clocks regardless of their separation. Or at least to
start recording data at the same time, like when each reaches a
predetermined distance from the other. (All Doppler effects accounted for.)

An observer with clock A thinks clock B is moving.

An observer with clock B thinks clock A is moving.

After the “relative” motion has occurred for some time, the two clocks pass
by in very close proximity to each other and exchange their data.

 

The observer with clock A assumes the reading from Clock B will indicate
that time has passed more slowly for B than for A.  The observer with clock
B assumes the reading from Clock A will indicate that time has passed more
slowly for A than for B. Both cannot be correct.

 

Clearly because of this, there IS A PARADOX, and that paradox is undeniably
embedded in the notion that all motion is relative. Bringing in arguments
from other theories, and proclaiming that there is no paradox does not
dismiss this logical problem inherent in SRT’s notion that all motion is
relative.

 

If one clock is more stationary with regards to the CMB it is likely that is
the one which will be more correct in their prediction of the clocks
readings.

They cannot both be correct. 

If they cannot both be correct, then all motion is NOT relative, but time is
slowed for objects moving relative to space itself.

 

Chip

Hi All,

 

The best way to sort out a problem is to understand the physics behind a
situation and then use mathematics to calculate the magnitude of the
physical effect attributed to it. Lets look at the so called "twin paradox".

 

Two observers O1 and O2 are next to and at rest with each other. Both have
accurate atomic or whatever clocks. O2 is accelerated to speed v, travels
for time t at v, is decelerated to rest wrt to O1, accelerated to v towards
O1, again travels for a time and finally is decelerated to rest next to O1.
They compare clocks. O2’s clock has slowed down wrt O1. Yet O2 has observed
O1 traveling at v. So why doesn’t O1’s clock slow down wrt to O2?

 

The answer is the acceleration. To accelerate O2, a force is applied to it.
The combination of force and distance adds energy to O2 that is not added to
O1. That energy is added to O2 in terms of kinetic energy or momentum
change. No matter how small is the energy that is added, it is split between
mass and velocity and causes a time dilation. They are the special
relativity theory (SRT) corrections. That is something that O2 experiences
and O1 does not experience.

 

The fundamental difference that O2’s acceleration makes is that its mass
increases as well as its velocity. Its time wrt O1  decreases. So while O2
may see O1 accelerating away, O1 is not the one experiencing the
acceleration. Therefore O1 is not the observer whose mass is increasing and
whose time is dilating. That is the physical reason why there is no "twin
paradox". 

 

Time dilation due to acceleration and deceleration (calculable from gravity
equivalence) appears to be cumulative. Acceleration effects may make a
difference if O2 is rapidly accelerated to v and then immediately rapidly
decelerated to rest wrt O1, followed by a rapid acceleration to v and an
immediate deceleration to rest next to O1. O2 will show SRT time dilation
effect equal to the integrated effect of its relativistic velocity wrt O1.
Those interested could calculate the acceleration effect from gravity
equivalence and see how they compare.

 

Apart from that the time delay O2 experiences is because of the velocity
multiplied by time effect. When the time traveled is much longer than the
acceleration time, the time delay experienced by O2 will, for all practical
purposes, be due to the SRT correction. 

 

The above has described the physics of the so called “twin paradox”. There
is no paradox. O2’s time slows relative to O1 because O2 is the one that has
been accelerated. Einstein was correct on both situations, the relativistic
time correction and that they are only experienced by the accelerated
observer. 

 

Of course you are free to disagree with the above. However if you feel
compelled to point out that it is wrong, it is best done by forwarding the
physics that makes it wrong and then present the mathematics required to
show the magnitude of the physical effect. Then show how it agrees with
experimental observation. In doing that remember that experimentalist using
accurate atomic clocks have many times verified the SRT time corrections. 

 

There are two ways by which the SRT corrections can be applied. One is that
there is an absolute zero reference somewhere in space and all corrections
are applied from it. The other is that the SRT corrections are a property of
any particle moving wrt another. I have previously published some
calculations that suggest that the rotating or toroidal photon model for the
structure of matter is responsible for the SRT corrections of matter. With
all sub atomic particles, proton, neutron electron and neutrino having a
rotating or toroidal photon structure, the SRT corrections are automatically
inbuilt into every particle. As such I am happy that Einstein’s SRT
corrections will always apply. 

 

Remember that all linear motions are relative to the observer. However
accelerations and circular motions are absolute. O1 and O2 may start out at
0.5 c wrt O3. O2 may be decelerated to rest wrt O3, remain at rest wrt O3
and then accelerated back to 0.5c to return to rest next to O1. O1 will
still see O2’s clock as having lost time. O3 will see an entirely different
situation. But remember O3 can only see what is happening to O1 and O2 by
using photons. O3’s time dilation observations of O1 and O2 must include the
SRT corrections as well as Doppler effect and distance changes. Complex but
calculable to those interested.

 

Chip, regarding your analogy of A and B. At one stage in their life they
were at the same place at the same time, even if it was only at birth. To
find out which will be the younger you need to establish their background.
If A remained at rest and B was accelerated away from A, B will be the
younger when they both meet up again. If they both travelled away with equal
accelerations, velocities and time they will both appear the same age. Both
would be younger than a person born at the same place at the same time and
remained at that place when they all met up again. 

 

I am quite happy to accept that all linear motion is relative. It agrees
with SRT and experiment. I am also satisfied that the rotating or toroidal
photon model for an electron (and other particles) gives a physical
description that matches both SRT and observation. 

 

Cheers,

 

Vivian Robinson

Hi John

 

Yes.  When I used the large circle example, I was afraid that someone would
divert the conversation from Special Relativity.  I suppose I deserve that.

 

Back to Special Relativity.

 

One Twin (Twin B) is moving at a constant highly relativistic velocity
toward Twin A. Twin B thinks Twin A is moving, Twin A thinks Twin B is
moving. When twin B arrives at Twin A’s location, Twin A expects Twin B to
be younger, Twin B expects Twin A to be younger.  Mutually exclusive
conditions (if all motion is relative). So all motion is not relative.
Simple, even for post grads, like you and me.

 

I welcome constructive, logical, suggestions, but please refrain from
condescension, it does not help the cause.

Hi Chip,

What happens for a circulating (near) lightspeed object is, not that local
time or length changes, but the ring appears to get smaller for the
participant - shrinking to zero length ring at lightspeed. Clocks onboard
act normally. They will feel, however, feel an acceleration unless in
free-fall, which can occur for a curved space -time or round the edge of the
universe, for example. You really need to expand your thinking to General
relativity (which is, of course, itself not the most general of all the
possible proper descriptions of space and time, as it has only a simple
scalar curvature) to get a proper grip on this.

Someone mentioned a muon storage ring. the stored Muons decay normally
according to themselves, but see a much smaller ring. They also feel a
permanent transverse acceleration. The is also (synchrotron)radiation, but
this is from the system ring+muons, rather than from the muons themselves.

Most of the rest of the discussion on this has been at a level usually
treated at undergraduate level. Grahame is right: you will not find a
mathematical contradiction in special relativity. All this stuff has been
done before.

Hope this helps,

Cheers, John.

Regards, John W.

Hi Grahame

 

The reason for the huge circle in my thought experiment, is so that the
velocity can be very close to c, causing relativistic time dilation, and
that velocity dependent time dilation would dominate the experiment, while
acceleration induced time variation would be far less significant.

 

And I agree with you that space possesses a reference rest frame where time
is not retarded in any of these or similar circumstances.

 

But the important thing, I believe, is that all motion cannot be relative,
and there cannot be full reciprocity regarding the effects of motion.  For
if all motion is relative, then there is just no solution which satisfies
the equations and does not present a paradox. If all motion is relative,
then twin A will be younger than twin B, and twin B will be younger than
twin A. But of course these are mutually exclusive answers, so all motion is
not relative.

 

So as it stands, if I am reading the comments correctly, you, me, Chandra,
and Albrecht, agree that there is a more Lorentzian form of relativity,
(which I feel is caused by matter being made of confined light-speed energy)
which is the proper physical form of relativity in or universe.

 

Thank you for your thoughts and comments!!!

Hi chip,

 

I'm 100% with you on this!

I really don't understand the notion that 'the universe is an observer
effect' - it makes no sense to me whatsoever.  By the same token, the notion
that 'collapse of the wavefunction' is precipitated by
observation/measurement is to me quite fanciful - for me there is a much
more straightforward explanation for the phenomenon referred to as
'wavefunction collapse' (which I don't believe to be a collapse of any
kind!)

 

I'm sorry for not responding to your previous post sooner; I was planning to
send a comment, but have been fully occupied with other pressing matters of
late.  My observation relates to your thought experiment in which each
'twin' sees the other as travelling in a large circle at high speed.  For me
there is no paradox at all in this from the SR perspective (though like you,
I am of the firm opinion that there exists one unique objectively static
rest-frame [subject to Hubble expansion, of course], all other 'rest frames'
are in motion in absoolute terms).

 

If one twin is seen by the other as moving in a circle - however large - but
regards themself as being at rest, then they will instead experience a force
which the other twin will regard as acceleration towards the centre of the
circle but that they themself will regard as influence of a gravitational
field (if you doubt this, just posit an accelerometer on their ship with a
readout that can be seen by, or communicated to, their twin).  That
influence will be directly comparable with the centripetal force of
constant-speed circular motion and will be regarded by that twin as causing
identical time dilation for them c.f. one outside the influence of that
field.  They will therefore expect their OWN clock to be slowed by an
exactly corresponding amount from the perspective of one not subject to that
'gravitational field' - so they will fully expect their clock and that of
their twin to be retarded by a precisely-equal degree, and so that both
clocks would show identical times on comparison when again passing each
other.

 

[As a point of detail, making it a very BIG circle in no way reduces the
validity of this analysis, it simply requires more accurate instrumentation
- as is always the case with regard to details of SR & GR.]

 

As I said in my previous comment, it very much appears to me that SR is 100%
self-consistent mathematically.  This does not make it correct as a
representation of physical reality - but trying to discredit SR by
attempting to find a flaw in the math is to me a non-starter!  SR will ONLY
be shown to be an incorrect assumption (in respect specifically of
equivalence of all inertial reference frames) by consideration of the
energetic formation of particles (which can also be approached indirectly by
way of the Energy-Momentum Relation).

 

[Another point of detail: I have included a fairly exhaustive analysis of
Hasselkamp et al's experiment in my book: this shows that even so-called
'2nd order Doppler effect' cannot be used to detect motion of the earth wrt
the objective universal rest state, no matter how accurate readings or
instrumentation.  SR is a VERY tightly-meshed cage!]

Grahame

Hi Chandra

 

I don’t know if the others are not receiving my posts or if they are just
being ignored.

 

The current exchange is quite disheartening however.

 

To postulate that an observer creates the universe he experiences is absurd
in so many ways, and counter to the evidence in so many ways, that I cannot
believe we have spent so much time in such a discussion.

 

All the evidence suggests the universe existed before observers, and
continues to exist as each of us dies. The universe does what it does
whether we observe it or not.  We can only make very slight, insignificant
changes to the overall state of the universe. When we cause an interaction
to occur by observation, it has an effect, but that does not mean that the
universe is observer-centric. It just means that the universe does what it
does.  When interactions occur a set of rules exist which govern those
interactions.

 

In a universe which is in effect created in the mind of the observer, I am
the only observer that I know to exist.  The rest of the mentally imagined
observers I interact with are figments of my mind. So it does no good to
communicate with those figments and try to convince those imagined others of
anything.

 

Experience indicates that this is not the type of universe we live in.
Other sentient minds are present, all of us finding that Washington DC is
located in the same spot and has the same buildings. We live in a single
universe which has many sentient minds all seeing principally the same
thing. We know this because we communicate with others, and compare notes.

 

Once we understand the physics well enough we can see that wave-function
collapse is NOT required to explain an interaction. So the reason for some
quantum physicists overreaching and concluding that the observer has a
significant bearing on physics then is a mute argument.

 

We, as a species, seem to tend to look for the most “mentally stimulating”
explanations, rather than sticking to the scientific approach, and looking
for the most theoretically economical and practical answers.

 

The universe has many lessons for us embedded within.  One of the most
striking lessons is the elegant simplicity of how everything works.  If we
keep this elegant simplicity in mind as we look for the rest of the answers,
we are far more likely to find the right answers.

 

Warmest Regards

 

Charles (Chip) Akins
