          <div>Hi:</div>
          <div> </div>
          <div>Whatever else, in our discussions on SRT John W. never
            decisively came down for either epistomological or
            ontological essence for time-dilation &
            space-contraction.  Seems to me there many contributing
            aspects to this issue, but a central one, not found in the
            explantion below (or is it a TV screen play?), is due
            attention to the fact that the E&M interaction involves
            TWO SR-events: emission and absortion.  By not carefully
            separating these two events, many paradoxes can be
            generated!  Most reasonably, perhaps, it should be taken
            that these preternatural phenomena are manifest in the
            reception events, and not in the emission events.  In plane
            text: they are appearances, not physical modifications. 
            They result from a kind-of relativistic perspective.</div>
          <div> </div>
          <div>So, how about the muons?  Well, maybe they were not, as
            assumed, all generated at the same altitude, but at various
            heights as the cosmic rays penetrte different depths of
            atm.  I don't know the nuclear chemistry involved, but could
            it be that the x-section for the conversion grows as the
            cosmic ray penetrates more atm.?  Like nutrons in flesh,
            say.  Such would result in muon decays at much greater
            depths of atm than naively expected, thus busting the main
            empirical support for time-dilation. (Don't need a busting
            theory for lenght-contraction, it's never been seen anyway.)</div>

                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span>With the exception of
                        Grahame, who I agree with here in every respect,
                        you are just not thinking clearly enough.</span></p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span>Paraphrasing Feynmann,
                        you have to be careful not to fool yourself and
                        the easiest person to fool is yourself.</span></p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span>Firstly, Albrecht you are
                        right, of course, that special relativity says
                        nothing about acceleration: the equations
                        contain only space, time and velocity. Putting
                        oneself “inside the box” of special relativity
                        then is, obviously, not going to enable one to
                        understand it. This is why I used the special
                        properties of “unphysicality” spaceships to
                        simplify the argument and give an almost
                        instantaneous acceleration. Understanding the
                        maths must not be confused with understanding
                        the physics!</span></p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span><span> </span>Grahame is
                        right in that one passes continually through
                        many frames if one considers uniform
                        acceleration. The message is that special
                        relativity is one of the many things that needs
                        to follow from a deeper understanding of how the
                        universe works, not act as a starting point for
                        it. Also, showing that the mere mathematics of
                        special relativity is incomplete as a starting
                        point is so obvious as to be scarcely worth
                        mentioning. It has been known for over a
                        century, so why are you wasting your time
                        talking about it? Actually, come to think of it,
                        why am I wasting my time talking about it? Oh
                        well …</span></p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span>It is just not true that
                        there is no basis for an “understanding” of SR.
                        One can derive it in many ways from deeper
                        principles, including from the principle of
                        general covariance. This means that “relativity”
                        is not the same as “special relativity”. There
                        was a whole discussion on this earlier on this
                        thread which I have neither the time nor the
                        energy to repeat.</span></p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span>I derived SR from the
                        conservation of energy and the linearity of
                        field in my 2015 SPIE paper (have you read this
                        yet?). It can be, of course, derived from the
                        experimental properties of light, as by
                        Heaviside and Lorentz. </span></p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span>To properly understand
                        SR, though, you do need to expand your thinking
                        to include acceleration and the variation
                        between inertial frames. I have the impression
                        that some of you think that relativity says that
                        clocks elsewhere ACTUALLY speed up and slow
                        down. They do not. Each observer observes their
                        local clocks to be in harmony with all their
                        local processes. Wolf, you are right about this,
                        though it appears to be confusing you rather
                        than helping for some reason, as you seem to
                        contradict yourself in some of your statements.
                      </span></p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span>In the accelerated
                        system, the observers clock is being wound up.
                        Energy is being put into it. The effects of this
                        can be seen. She can feel the force and knows it
                        is there. The universe ahead is gradually
                        becoming bluer (and shorter!) and the universe
                        behind redder. It is the effect of the frame
                        change that is shrinking the scale of the
                        forward universe with respect to her own rulers
                        and clocks in a way that is exactly consistent
                        with a linear transformation to infinite
                        velocity that is the underling physics of
                        relativity. I realize that sentence will not
                        make any sense at first. When you get it you
                        will have got it.</span></p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span>Let me try to explain:
                        every single particle inside the local spaceship
                        is equally “spun up” by the acceleration. The
                        relative rate of local clocks with respect to
                        the protons, electrons, neutrons and local
                        lightbulb photons remains the same. The clocks
                        act normally. It is the forward universe that
                        appears to shrink as it “blues”. The operative
                        word is, and always is “appears”. The universe
                        is not actually shrinking at all! For the stay
                        at home quintuplet, she also knows the
                        spaceships clocks are all being wound up, yet
                        she observes them to slow down. You need to
                        understand this. You need to understand how the
                        harmony of phases works. <span> </span>When you
                        see things with light you have to understand the
                        consequences of seeing things with light. You
                        need to read de Broglie. Luckily, if you do not
                        read French there is an English translation of
                        this. Thanks Al! It is no good thinking inside a
                        half understanding of relativity by restricting
                        yourself to special relativity. In doing that
                        you just will not get it. Albrecht is right in
                        the fragment Wolf includes in his email (I do
                        not have Albrecht’s whole reply as it has not
                        appeared on my version of this forum).</span></p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span>Just to finish up: I
                        agree with Grahame about the first four
                        paragraphs in Albrechts email but, not to be too
                        British about it, not the last two. Here they

                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:
                        10.0pt;font-family: Times;background: white;">Another
                        point in this discussion: Acceleration <b>does
                          not play any role </b>in relativity, neither
                        in SRT nor in GRT. The reference to acceleration
                        in case of e.g. the twin paradox comes from the
                        (indirect) fact that in case of an acceleration
                        of one party / one twin this one will leave his
                        inertial frame. So the Lorentz transformation
                        does not apply any longer. But, not to confuse
                        it here, an acceleration does not give any
                        quantitative contribution to the processes
                        treated by SRT and GRT. </span></p>

                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:
                        10.0pt;font-family: Times;color:
                        blue;background: white;">Nonsense. See above.
                        This is the effect of fooling oneself with a set
                        of true assertions (nearly all of the above
                        paragraph is true!) The missing link is
                        precisely the fact that one leaves the inertial
                        frame that is the whole point. It is the
                        acceleration that adds energy to clocks, and it
                        is the conservation of energy that requires
                        space and time to appear to shrink. What is
                        “indirect” about the kick in the pants the
                        unphysicality spaceships need to accelerate you
                        to near lightspeed in a second? Acceleration is
                        that thing that changes your frame. Obviously!
                        As you yourself say. This does not mean SR is
                        wrong. SR does not purport to include
                        acceleration. It deals with apparent
                        transformations, from the point of view of an
                        observer in one inertail frame, of another in
                        another. Just and no more. It is no good just
                        using SR in an argument involving accelerations.
                        This is the same sort of thing as proving 1 is 2
                        by dividing by zero somewhere.</span></p>

                        10.0pt;font-family: Times;background: white;">Another
                        comment to the Lorentzian interpretation of
                        relativity: Following Lorentz makes relativity
                        much better understandable than the one of
                        Einstein, and it avoids all paradoxes which I
                        know. This applies particularly to GRT which
                        becomes so simple that it can be treated at
                        school, whereas the Einsteinian is too
                        complicated even for most students of physics.</span></p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: blue;">I
                        will paraphrase this: You understand the Lorentz
                        one but not the Einstein one. You are claiming
                        ignorance of the symmetry which exists when one
                        does particle physics, experiments in very
                        different frames with respect to local space.
                        This does introduce paradoxes for Lorentz. This
                        is ok. It is alright to not know about certain
                        things. Ignorance of something, however, is not
                        an argument that it does not exist. One can get
                        SR from Lorentz contraction, or general
                        covariance,<span>  </span>or a consideration
                        that everything is made from light, or
                        conservation of energy and momentum in waves. So
                        what? In all these cases SR is a derivative, not
                        a starting point. The Lorentz view of GR is
                        contained in the Einstein view of GR, where the
                        latter includes the observed transformations of
                        space and time as well as the “curvature”. This
                        does not, of course, mean that GR is true in
                        every respect. Experimentally, however, so far
                        so good. Or do you know otherwise?</span></p>

                          <div> </div>
                          <p>Hi Grahame,</p>
                          <p>fully agreement that Einstein's relativity
                            is a working theory but does not have any
                            causal explanation. This has to do with the
                            general attitude of Einstein with respect to
                            science when he developed relativity. But
                            before Einstein, Hendrik Lorentz had already
                            started to work on these problems, and his
                            approach does in fact have causal physical
                            explanations.</p>
                          <p>Shortly after the Michelson-Morley
                            experiment Oliver Heaviside presented a
                            calculation (1888), deduced from Maxwell's
                            theory of electromagnetism, that an
                            electrical field necessarily contracts at
                            motion. Fitzgerald concluded that if fields
                            contract also objects will contract at
                            motion. If this happens also the apparatus
                            of the MM experiment would contract at
                            motion. And if it contracts, so the
                            conclusion of Lorentz, the null-result of
                            the experiment is fully explained even if an
                            ether should exist.</p>
                          <p>Next step is dilation. It was (to my
                            knowledge) already suspected by Lorentz and
                            it was later found by Schrödinger (1930)
                            that inside elementary particles there is a
                            permanent motion with c, the speed of light.
                            If this is assumed it follows geometrically
                            that any elementary particle acts like a
                            light clock and its internal motion and so
                            its frequency is reduced in the way
                            described by the Lorentz transformation. The
                            reduction of the internal frequency
                            propagates to all cases of motion in
                            physics.</p>
                          <p>This is special relativity. But the
                            considerations of Lorentz can be also
                            extended to general relativity, and the
                            result is a mathematical model which fully
                            conforms to the one of Einstein but is also
                            based on physical explanations.</p>
                          <p>Another point in this discussion:
                            Acceleration <b>does not play any role </b>in
                            relativity, neither in SRT nor in GRT. The
                            reference to acceleration in case of e.g.
                            the twin paradox comes from the (indirect)
                            fact that in case of an acceleration of one
                            party / one twin this one will leave his
                            inertial frame. So the Lorentz
                            transformation does not apply any longer.
                            But, not to confuse it here, an acceleration
                            does not give any quantitative contribution
                            to the processes treated by SRT and GRT.</p>
                          <p>Another comment to the Lorentzian
                            interpretation of relativity: Following
                            Lorentz makes relativity much better
                            understandable than the one of Einstein, and
                            it avoids all paradoxes which I know. This
                            applies particularly to GRT which becomes so
                            simple that it can be treated at school,
                            whereas the Einsteinian is too complicated
                            even for most students of physics.</p>

                                (unless I've totally misunderstood you,

                            <div><font face="Arial" color="#000080"
                                size="2">Wolf, you propose (quite
                                reasonably) that each twin is initially
                                moving away from the other at speed
                                'v'.  You then propose a variation in
                                each twin's clock as perceived by the
                                other, delta-t'.  However your
                                expression for that delta-t' shows the
                                other twin's clock progressing FASTER
                                than that of the observer-twin (13
                                months instead of 12 months) - whereas
                                of course the whole point of SRT is that
                                the moving clock progresses SLOWER than
                                that of the static observer.  This is
                                due to a common fallacy, of applying the
                                time-dilation factor, which gives the
                                extended duration of each second, say,
                                in the moving frame as observed from the
                                static frame (hence the phrase
                                'time-dilation'), to the apparent
                                time-passed in that moving frame.  This
                                makes the ratio of observed/observer
                                clock-time the inverse of what it should
                                be according to SRT.  The perceived
                                elapsed time in the moving frame should
                                be observer time multiplied by the

                                accumulated difference will not be shown
                                on either clock - as of course it
                                couldn't be.  However, as John W points
                                out, any apparent difference will be
                                precisely wiped out by acceleration
                                considerations: SRT is 100% internally

                                for instance, relating to trajectories

                                for over a century.  The question then
                                arises as to why this should be so -
                                since, unlike pretty well every other

                                has been found (or even sought?) for
                                effects in spacetime as given by SRT. 
                                It's been tacitly accepted by the
                                mainstream physics community as "That's
                                just how it is".  This is a statement of

                              <p>Wolf,</p>
                              <p>before we enter discussions about
                                details I send you a drawing of my
                                experiment with some explanations. I
                                think that it is simple enough so that
                                we do not need too much philosophy about
                                epistemology to understand it.</p>
                              <p>My drawing: At the left side you see a
                                part of the ring of the synchrotron in
                                which the electrons cycle. They hit the
                                target T (at 0 m) where they are
                                converted into photons. The photons fly
                                until the target H<sub>2</sub> where
                                they are deflected by a small angle
                                (about one degree) (at 30.5 m). The
                                deflected photons meet the converter
                                (KONV  at 35 m) where a portion of the
                                photons is converted into an electron-
                                position pair. The pair is detected and
                                analysed in the configuration of the
                                magnet 2 MC 30 and telescopes of spark
                                chambers (FT between 37.5 and 39.5 m).
                                The rest of detectors at the right is
                                for monitoring the basic photon beam.</p>
                              <p>In the magnet and the telescopes the
                                tracks of both particles (electron and
                                positron) are measured and the momentum
                                and the energy of both particles is
                                determined.</p>
                              <p>Here all flying objects are interpreted
                                as being particles, there is no wave
                                model needed. So, I do not see where we
                                should need here any QM.</p>
