Albrecht:
Thanks for correcting the time dilation formula's yes I mixed up the
apostrophes. And have corrected them below so we have a correct basis to
discuss the numbers..
To keep the description of the experiment simple I've corrected it so it
is pure and we can discuss your objections directly below.
You state "No, this has several errors as I have already explained in
the preceding mail. Each twin, when he fires the retro rocket, knows
that he leaves his original frame. So, as he knows relativity, he
realizes that his clock is now running more slowly than before. He knows
that now his clock will, compared the the run of his clock in the
preceding phase, measure the time according to Δt_1 ’ = Δt_1* (1-v^2
/c^2 )^1/2 . So the drift of his time will be, when back to his
starting point, T = Δt_1 + Δt_1 ’ . And the other twin will have T =
Δt_2 + Δt_2 ’ and so the same result. "
I do not understand what you mean by "leaving his original frame"? each
twin is in a rocket with a clock and a protocol. The protocol says fire
a rocket for half a day to make them separate, after exactly one year
fire a reverse rocket for one day on each twins clock to reverse the
velocities, drift for one year fire a stopping rocket for half a day to
come to a stop. Now both twins are stopped where they started at zero
velocity. Everything is symmetric both twins do exactly the same thing
and use their own clocks to carry out the function. But relativity says
since the other twin was moving with velocity "v" for one year going out
and one year coming in and though the sign has changed the formula Δt_1
’ = Δt_1* (1-v^2 /c^2 )^1/2 only contains the square of the velocity
both twins would according toSRT claim the other twins clocks would have
slowed down. Its simple. The theory gives the wrong answer.
what do you mean leave the frame? both twins are in a capsule looking at
a clock. They are not leaving anything.
Then You state:"Twin 1 will have measured as given above, using your
example, T = 12 months +13 months = 25 months. Twin 2 will have the same
result, and both results fully conform to special relativity. "
If I put in 13 it was a typo it should have been 12. I'm saying both
twins according to the protocol use only their own clocks and travel out
and back for 12 months on their own clocks so T= 24 months. However
according to SRT each believes the other's clock has slowed by 1 month
and would show 11 months. Sorry about my error and falsely reversing the
effect and introducing 13 instead of 11, It was late. My mistake.
Then You state: And, by the way, this gedanken experiment is in fact not
a paradox. There are paradoxes like the Ehrenfest paradox which is
differently interpreted by specialists. But the case with the twins is
an example from the early time of SR and it is raised from time to time
again by those who start to understand SR.
How can this not be a paradox?it has been called a paradox for 80+
years. In my experiment Two twins do exactly the same thing , their
theory predicts the other's clocks would slow down, when in fact they do
not. Is this not a paradox in the theory? is such a paradox not a
demonstration that the theory is incorrect? If you look up "Twin
Paradox" you will find several explanations all of them agree SRT is
incomplete. Most state that adding GRT fixes the problem. I'm showing
these fixes are insufficient and GRT does not fix the problem.
In addition you say gravity has nothing to do with it? Does not the
"equivalence principle' equate acceleration and gravity? Have I been
living in a tree for 50years? how do you interpret the equivalence
principle if not "ma =mg' therefore "s=g" ? Just depend on whether you
believe Einstein meant in the strong or weak equivalence principle.
