  • The Behaviour of Clocks and Rods in Special and General Relativity (2009) [Updated 7 years ago]
    by Barrie J. Tonkinson   read the paper:

    While adhering to the formalism of Special and General Relativity,
    this paper considers the interpretation of clock rates and the rating of
    clocks in detail. We also pay particular attention to the crucial
    requirement of reciprocity between inertial frames. Our overriding
    concern is to bring out a distinction between clocks which run slow
    (slowly) in the everyday sense and those which record a smaller
    time interval between a specific pair of events - while running at the
    standard rate. The day by day application of relativistic formalism is
    not affected, but the underlying physics is changed.
