B | \ | \ | \ (F2) | \ | \ | \ | X | / | / | / (F1) | / | / | / A Enjoy! You see how arrogant you are. I know this wrong reasoning. So why are you posting it as if you want to teach me something. Your knowledge of physics is so rudimentary compared o mine that you are only making an ------- of your...

Remember that to conduct a complete analysis we need to join up the inbound and outbound journeys. each journey can be analysed with SR, and is symmetrical as you say. However when you join up the two journeys the argument is no longer symmetrical, and this will allow for the final assymetry in the...

Flat spacetime (without curvature from gravity), & SR, clearly deals with both space and time. It is normal to view time as one dimension in a 4D spacetime. For computational purposes, any SR frame puts (x,y,z,t) axes onto the set of all events in (4D) spacetime. I'm not sure why Johan objects to t...

I admit I am confused. Johanfprins arguments may or may not be true and consistant. But, what I am confused with is how his interpretation can explain the survival of the Muons till they reach the surface of the Earth I have derived this from the Lorentz transformation in one of my posts above and ...

Johan, I admit that I am not a physicist but as I understand it, as a particle approaches C the time of the frame of the particle slows down to infinity at C. This is where we differ: The time on a clock travelling WITH the particle does NOT slow down. It only seems on a clock remaining behind that...

In order for them not to waste time, I will probably have to also reveal some proprietary information. The latter will obviously have to be covered by an NDA until the date that it is safeguarded by appropriate patents. After that date hey will also be free to publish any other data. Have you commu...

Johan - have you given up substantive argument? What substantive argument? The only substantive argument there is, is that for the time dilation formula you have (delta)t(T)=(gamma)*(delta)tp where (delta)tp is the "stationary" time interval of the moving clock within its own inertial reference fra...

It is a waste of time to argue with tomclarke since like most theoretical physicists he is standing with his feet solidly anchored in the clouds. As an example: Consider a muon twin paradox. One is muon set is kept stationary. the other set of muons is fired to the moon at high speed, reflected and...

The situation at present is that, at last, a large company has approached me through a representative and asked for samples to test and to use to repeat my experiments of 10 years ago. The samples will be ready for them by March. Will the results be published, or is this a purely commercial venture...

What is the difference between and engineer, a physicist, and a mathimatician? An engineer believes equations approximate the world. A physicist believes the world approximates equations. A mathematician sees no connection between the two. I am once more grateful that after my MSc in physics I was ...

IE: the math needs to describe reality, otherwise it is meaningless. I believe this has been Johan's point all along. It is like arguing that if you take a sandwich, and keep eating half of what you have in hand, and keep doing it twice as fast, you will never run out of food, or be hungry. Mathema...

I may have missed something as I drifted away from this thread once it became an exercise in math. Has anyone defended their position against undeniable experimental observations? The atomic clocks of course ran at the same rate within their frame of reference and they 'seemed' to run differently i...

Sorry to derail the thread from its current direction - Johan, have you made any progress in the last 12 months with room temp superconductivity? Has anyone attempted to repeat your method? How about the patent? Thank you for the enquiry. Things never move as fast as one wants them to move. The sit...

Best wishes, Tom This is all I am willing to quote from your post since it is biggest heap of nonsense I have ever read. I have asked you time and again to stick to basics which are the following: 1. Einstein's two postulates AND 2. The Lorentz transformation. The Minkowski space construction is ma...

Johan's position could be characterised by the fact that he does not understand (2). So he uses the time dilation correction, but not the change in FOR correction when calculating distant times. If you look on the web people sometimes call this change in FOR correction "time slip". Tom's problem is...
