I garbled the answer for the circular case. Sorry. I should have said the linear acceleration causes the traveling twin and the home twin to disagree ...
There are two "red herring" examples that claim to prove that acceleration doesn't cause the time difference in the twins' ages at the reunion. One is...
Everyone knows what is observed at the reunion: The home twin is older than the traveling twin. The controversy is over the traveler's conclusions abo...
Sorry ... I don't know why it did that to you. I've been banned for life on Physics Forum (since more than 10 years ago), so at least you didn't get b...
I might be able to help you understand my simultaneity method a little by just saying that my new method and the proof both share a focus on determini...
The most important result I got was the proof that the CMIF simultaneity method is incorrect. If my proof is correct, that's a BIG deal, because the C...
Yes. It is near the end of Section 7 of my webpage: https://sites.google.com/site/cadoequation/cado-reference-frame What do you mean by "the standard ...
Please show how to use that equation to compute the age of the home twin, according to the traveling twin, immediately before and immediately after th...
I don't understand that comment. It's obvious that the image received is an old, out-of-date image, so it should never be considered to be showing the...
There are some philosophers on this forum who are also fairly knowledgeable about special relativity and the twin paradox. Those of you in that catego...
I would say that it's what he computes when he properly takes the image transit time into account. I wouldn't use the term "actual" for her perspectiv...
That's true, provided by "views" you mean what the traveling twin CONCLUDES about the home twin's current age. His conclusion about her current age is...
If he instantaneously changes his velocity from +v to zero, he will conclude that she instantaneously ages by half the amount she would have aged if h...
That's a special relativity result. The twin "paradox" doesn't require (or profit from) general relativity. And that result applies ONLY to perpetuall...
Please remember that my reason for posting here is to get opinions from the philosophers on this forum on my "intuitive" philosophical comments. I'm n...
Your first paragraph doesn't work, because the distance between them is constantly changing, and so the actual period of the heartbeats is distorted b...
" No, they are actually BOTH correct. And the evidence that they each have is valid evidence fro THEMSELVES, but it contradicts the evidence of the ot...
"For the traveler traveling away or the observer staying behind their is no difference in their relative speed so they age at the same rate." As I've ...
"Where do you get that from. You and are 'perpetually-inertial observers' and do not age differently." My statement applied to the case where we are m...
I forgot to respond to your other two points. For circular motion by the traveler, the two twins Do agree with one another. Both say the twin at the c...
Special relativity says that, for two perpetually-inertial observers (meaning that they have never accelerated, and never will accelerate), they EACH ...
