• Should we synchronize clocks

    Time is what clocks indicate.

    If we synchronize clocks - they're
    indicating t'=t; that's what clock
    synchronization means.

    We can do it - that doesn't have to
    be obvious or easy, but that's definitely
    something we can manage in most
    circumstances (with a good accuracy).

    Now should we do it - and make "what
    clocks indicate" to be t'=t - or should
    we rather give up and obey "Laws of
    Nature" announced by a mumbling idiot?
    Maybe GPS wouldn't work if we didn't,
    but what a magnificient symmetry we
    would have instead it.

    That is the question. Isn't it?

    We need at least to consider some kind of practical procedure to apply in order to :
    - check if they are synchronized, which is defining "synchronization" in a more clever way
    - implement synchronization procedure

    If you really were and engineer you would know.

    We can do it

    Yes we can. You can't.

    You have NO practical definition of what "t' = t" could mean except for trivial standby clocks.

    So your claim is void of any relevance.

    If you have a clock in Warsaw and another clock in Moscow what *practical* procedure could make sense in order to claim if (or not) t = t'.

    Your hand waving is showing Comrade Maciej.

    I asked you once how to check if a clock a nearby station an mine are "indicating t'=t"

    You suggested (for ONCE you didn't insult and slander) to use light i.e.
    look at the other watch.

    I did so, and find a way to insure (adjusting clocks) that from my place I
    can see than t = t'.

    Then I moved to the train station. And checked again by looking at the
    clock at my house.

    I noticed that, then, t =/= t'.

    I was disappointed :'(

    poor stinker.

    Still a nice signature !

    Time is what clocks indicate.

    If we synchronize clocks - they're

    synchronization means.

    We can do it - that doesn't have to
    be obvious or easy, but that's definitely
    something we can manage in most
    circumstances (with a good accuracy).

    Now should we do it - and make "what
    clocks indicate" to be t'=t - or should
    we rather give up and obey "Laws of
    Nature" announced by a mumbling idiot?
    Maybe GPS wouldn't work if we didn't,
    but what a magnificient symmetry we
    would have instead it.

    That is the question. Isn't it?

    The only possible way to synchronize
    two clocks is if both clocks 'occupy' the same space.

    And that's impossible!

    Each clock has it's own space and time, and cannot be shared.

    You're not solving general cases

    And synchronizing clocks at some meters
    looks like an absurd, at this distance
    you can always use one and just split
    its output. Personally I would rather
    try the same at 5km too.

    A pity, but we can easily survive
    without preserving them. Much easier
    than without synchronization. And
    a preferred frame obviously exists
    anyway, at least 3 of them - geocentric
    classical, heliocentric, ECI.

    This is semething you'd have to do at CERN on a centimeter scale.

    Or between CERN and Gran Sasso neutrinos detector on a km basis.

    So take precise enough clocks to correspond to a distance of a few
    meters or less. They actually exist.

    You're not solving problems from an

    entirely impossible, but it will

    And synchronizing clocks at some meters
    looks like an absurd, at this distance
    you can always use one and just split
    its output.

    Split what ? With what transmission lines ? How do you evaluate the delay
    to consider ?

    Just guessing is wrong Wozmaniak.


    Personally I would rather
    try the same at 5km too.

    "Personally" ? LOL !

    Anyway, synchronizing clocks
    means making them indicating t'=t

    galilean.

    Galilean ? In a way yes. But Galiean transformations do not preserve
    Maxwell's laws.

    A pity, but we can easily survive
    without preserving them. Much easier
    than without synchronization. And
    a preferred frame obviously exists
    anyway, at least 3 of them - geocentric
    classical, heliocentric, ECI.

    t'_A = t_B (this would mean what you spotted as wrong) but t'_A - t_B =
    t_B - t_A.


    But this equation would be wrong, if A and B move.

    In this case the time for transit of the signal wouldn't be equal on
    both ways (towards the remote station and back).

    To make this equation valid, Einstein had to restrict the field of
    application to no-moving stations.

    So, let's be generous and assume, that he actually meant that
    restriction and simply forgot to write it down.

    So: now we have two stations (A and B), which do not move in respect to
    each other.

    Now we still have two disconnected clocks in A and B and want to
    synchronize them.

    For practical reason we chose to synchronize clock 'B' to 'A-time'.

    The other way round would actually be also possible, too, but certainly
    not both, because it would cause a 'dead lock' if we try to synch clock
    A to clock B and clock B to clock A simultaneously.

    Einstein forgot to mention that, too.

    But as friendly as we are, we simply assume that Einstein meant the case 'clock B gets synchronized to clock A'.

    So: how wanted Einstein to do that?

    Well, sending a signal from A to B and reflecting it back to A, would be
    the method of choice.

    A could measure the delay, but B can't, because B gets only one 'beep',
    hence has nothing to measure.

    That's why A needs to tell the operator in B, to what time he wants his
    clock to be set.

    How could A do that???

    Well, he could divide the delay by two, add that value to the current
    local time, encode the result into some sort of signal and send it to
    the remote station.

    There the signal had to be decoded and the clock set accordingly.

    Are there any alternatives???

    I would say: no.

    BUT: Einstein didn't mention any part of this method.

    Do you have a different opinion?

    You may argue that all precision clocks actually -are- light clocks.
    After all, a cesium clock is just a resonant microwave cavity
    that you count the periods of. (with some corrections applied :-)
    All that cesium beam stuff etc. merely serves to keep the mirrors
    of the light clock at just the right distance. [1]

    A cesium clock is nothing but a calibrated and stabilised light clock,

    [1] The reality is a bit more complicated, and the mirrors are not
    really moved, but the basic idea is sound.
    (it is done with clever electronics instead)

    Right.
    That's why there are no visual observations

    You have been told this a _lot_ of times by Python, me and others.
    Why do you never learn?

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "If at the point A of space there is a clock, an observer

    An observer at A can determine the time value of the clock at A.
    An observer at B can determine the time value of the clock at B.
    Local observations only!



    Exact. This is why Einstein's synchronization checking formula is NOT
    t'_A = t_B (this would mean what you spotted as wrong) but t'_A - t_B
    = t_B - t_A.


    But this equation would be wrong, if A and B move.

    In this case the time for transit of the signal wouldn't be equal on
    both ways (towards the remote station and back).

    If the distance between the clocks changes with time,
    then the clocks can't be synchronous.
    The clocks in Einstein's definition of simultaneity
    are stationary in the same frame of reference.


    To make this equation valid, Einstein had to restrict the field of application to no-moving stations.

    So, let's be generous and assume, that he actually meant that
    restriction and simply forgot to write it down.

    He didn't forget to write it down. See quotation above.

    "If at the point A of space there is a clock"
    "If there is at the point B of space another clock"

    In more modern nomenclature we will use "frame of reference"
    in stead of "space".


    So: now we have two stations (A and B), which do not move in respect to
    each other.

    Now we still have two disconnected clocks in A and B and want to
    synchronize them.

    No, Einstein will not synchronise them, he will see if
    they are synchronous.


    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "But it is not possible without further assumption to compare,
    | in respect of time, an event at A with an event at B.
    | We have so far defined only an rCLA timerCY and a rCLB time.rCY

    The German word "Festsetzung" is translated with "assumption".
    A better translation would be "definition".

    So we have to make further _definitions_:

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "We have not defined a common rCLtimerCY for A and B, for
    | the latter cannot be defined at all unless we establish
    | by definition that the rCLtimerCY required by light to travel
    | from A to B equals the rCLtimerCY it requires to travel from
    | B to A."

    That means that _by definition_ the light _always_ uses the
    same time to go from A to B as it uses to go from from B to A.

    However, we must use clocks to measure these times.

    So we must add:
    Clocks are synchronous if they simultaneously show the same.
    (That's what "synchronous" means!)

    Now anybody can figure out a method to see if the clocks
    are synchronous.
    For example like this:
    1.The observer at A sends a light pulse towards B when
    his clock shows tA.
    2.The observer at B note that his clock shows t'B when
    the pulse hits his light detector.

    3.The observer at B sends a pulse towards A when his
    clock shows tB.
    4.The observer at A note that his clock shows t'A when
    the pulse hits his light detector.

    The observers communicate through an appropriate medium
    (shouting, radio, optic fibre, snail mail, whatever).

    IMPORTANT: Try to understand the logic in the following:

    They know that light always uses the same time both ways. ==========================================================

    So if (t'B-tA) = (t'A-tB)

    then (t'B-tA) is the time light used to go from A to B,
    which means that the clocks showed the same at the instant
    when the light left A and at the instant when the light hit B.
    The clocks are synchronous.
    and
    then (t'A-tB) is the time light used to go from B to A,
    which means that the clocks showed the same at the instant
    when the light left B and at the instant when the light hit A.
    The clocks are synchronous.

    But if (t'B-tA) rea (t'A-tB)

    then (t'B-tA) is not the time light used to go from A to B,
    which means that the clocks didn't show the same at the instant
    when the light left A or at the instant when the light hit B.
    The clocks are not synchronous.
    and
    then (t'A-tB) is not the time light used to go from B to A,
    which means that the clocks didn't show the same at the instant
    when the light left B or at the instant when the light hit A,
    The clocks are not synchronous

    Einstein's method is slightly different, but the logic is the same:

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "Let a ray of light start at the rCLA timerCY tA from A towards B,
    | let it at the rCLB timerCY tB be reflected at B in the direction
    | of A, and arrive again at A at the rCLA timerCY trC#A."

    tA, tB and t'A are precisely defined as:
    tA is the time shown by the clock at A when the ray leave A.
    tB is the time shown by the clock at B when the ray hits B.
    t'A is the time shown by the clock at A when the reflected
    ray hits A.

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | " In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    | tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB."

    (The German "laufen synchron" is translated with "synchronize".
    A better translation would be "are synchronous".)

    If tB reA tA rea trC#A reA tB then the clocks are not synchronous.


    For practical reason we chose to synchronize clock 'B' to 'A-time'.

    The other way round would actually be also possible, too, but certainly
    not both, because it would cause a 'dead lock' if we try to synch clock
    A to clock B and clock B to clock A simultaneously.
    Einstein forgot to mention that, too.

    But as friendly as we are, we simply assume that Einstein meant the case 'clock B gets synchronized to clock A'.

    So: how wanted Einstein to do that?

    He didn't.

    Einstein wouldn't synchronise the clocks.
    He would see if the clocks were synchronous.

    The following is irrelevant to Einstein's definition of simultaneity:


    Well, sending a signal from A to B and reflecting it back to A, would be
    the method of choice.

    A could measure the delay, but B can't, because B gets only one 'beep', hence has nothing to measure.

    That's why A needs to tell the operator in B, to what time he wants his clock to be set.

    How could A do that???

    Well, he could divide the delay by two, add that value to the current
    local time, encode the result into some sort of signal and send it to
    the remote station.

    There the signal had to be decoded and the clock set accordingly.

    Are there any alternatives???

    I would say: no.

    BUT: Einstein didn't mention any part of this method.

    TH

    Note that Einstein says nothing about how to make
    asynchronous clocks synchronous. He only says that
    if tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB
    then the clock at A and the clock at B are synchronous.

    This is a definition of simultaneity, not a description
    of how to synchronise clock.
    --------

    How to synchronise clocks depend on a lot of circumstances,
    and it would be stupid of Einstein to define a method
    which should be applicable for all cases in all future.

    To illustrate this problem let's ask:
    How do we synchronise TAI and UTC clocks?

    Let two clocks A and B be stationary at the geoid at equator.
    Clock B is a distance L east of clock A.
    We know that clock A is synchronous with UTC, and we want to
    synchronise clock B to UTC.

    How do we do it?
    The problem is that TAI and UTC clocks are synchronous in
    the non rotating Earth centred frame of reference (ECI-frame),
    they are NOT synchronous in the ground frame.
    But the clocks A and B are moving in the ECI-frame, and
    we can't stop the spinning of the Earth to sync the clocks.

    The following calculations are made in the ECI frame.
    t is the coordinate time in the ECI-frame.
    Speed of clocks in the ECI-frame v = 465.1 m/s v/c = 1.55e-6

    We assume that at the instant t = 0 the clocks are synchronous
    according to Einstein's definition, and tA = 0 and TB = 0.
    If we send a light pulse from clock A towards clock B, clock B
    will move away at the speed v. Speed of light is c in the ECI-frame.
    We can calculate the time the light pulse will use to hit B:
    ct = L + vt => t = L/(c-v) = (L/c)ria(1 + 1.55e-6)

    That means that if clock A showed t1 when the light pulse
    was emitted, then, to be synchronous with clock A, clock B
    must show t1 + (L/c)ria(1 + 1.55e-6) when the pulse hits it.

    TAI clocks are routinely synced after the basic principle shown above.
    (The details are different of course. Satellites, optic fibre, radio)

    Another much used way to synchronise clocks to UTC is to use the GPS.

    But in the real world we never bounces light off a mirror to
    synchronise clocks.

    When I first read it I found it quite correct (then I found another less subtle in Poincar|-'s work) in term of using exchanges of signals and
    timing intervals is definitely connected to synchronization. If you were

    Exact. This is why Einstein's synchronization checking formula is NOT

    = t_B - t_A.


    But this equation would be wrong, if A and B move.

    In this case the time for transit of the signal wouldn't be equal on
    both ways (towards the remote station and back).

    If the distance between the clocks changes with time,
    then the clocks can't be synchronous.

    Why?

    I see no particular reason, why 'in synch' couldn't be defined for
    moving clocks.

    The clocks in Einstein's definition of simultaneity
    are stationary in the same frame of reference.

    Well, OK, but that wouldn't solve the problem of synchronization.

    To synch a remote clock to the own time, you would need to tell the
    remote observer, to which time he had to turn the knobs of his clock.

    So: how could that be done, if there is no communication?


    To make this equation valid, Einstein had to restrict the field of
    application to no-moving stations.

    So, let's be generous and assume, that he actually meant that
    restriction and simply forgot to write it down.

    He didn't forget to write it down. See quotation above.

    "If at the point A of space there is a clock"
    "If there is at the point B of space another clock"

    In more modern nomenclature we will use "frame of reference"

    'frame of reference' means 'space plus a measure of time'.

    So 'space' and 'frame of reference' are not meant to be synonymous.


    So: now we have two stations (A and B), which do not move in respect
    to each other.

    Now we still have two disconnected clocks in A and B and want to

    No, Einstein will not synchronise them, he will see if

    Please read the whole post before you respond,

    You ask the same questions over an over, and snip the part
    of my post were all your questions are addressed.

    That's unacceptable behaviour!

    So let's start again.

    READ THE WHOLE POST, AND DON'T ASK QUESTIONS WHICH ARE ANSWERED
    IN MY POST!


    Note this:
    -----------
    There is no "Einstein's method for synchronising clocks".
    There is only "Einstein's definition of simultaneity",
    which makes it possible to determine if clocks are synchronous.


    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "If at the point A of space there is a clock, an observer
    | at A can determine the time values of events in the immediate
    | proximity of A by finding the positions of the hands which
    | are simultaneous with these events.
    | If there is at the point B of space another clock in all
    | respects resembling the one at A, it is possible for an observer
    | at B to determine the time values of events in the immediate
    | neighbourhood of B."

    An observer at A can determine the time value of the clock at A.
    An observer at B can determine the time value of the clock at B.
    Local observations only!


    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "But it is not possible without further assumption to compare,
    | in respect of time, an event at A with an event at B.
    | We have so far defined only an rCLA timerCY and a rCLB time.rCY

    The German word "Festsetzung" is translated with "assumption".
    A better translation would be "definition".

    So we have to make further _definitions_:

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "We have not defined a common rCLtimerCY for A and B, for
    | the latter cannot be defined at all unless we establish
    | by definition that the rCLtimerCY required by light to travel
    | from A to B equals the rCLtimerCY it requires to travel from
    | B to A."

    That means that _by definition_, the light _always_ uses the
    same time to go from A to B as it uses to go from from B to A.

    However, we must use clocks to measure these times.

    So we must add:
    Clocks are synchronous if they simultaneously show the same.
    (That's what "synchronous" means!)

    Now anybody can figure out a method to see if the clocks
    are synchronous.

    I will describe a method which is slightly different from Einstein's.
    In my version A and B are symmetrical.

    1.1. The observer at A sends a light pulse towards B when
    his clock shows tA.
    1.2 The observer at B note that his clock shows t'B when
    the light pulse hits his light detector.

    2.1. The observer at B sends a light pulse towards A when
    his clock shows tB.
    2.2. The observer at A note that his clock shows t'A when
    the pulse hits his light detector.

    When these four measurements are made, the observers communicate
    through an appropriate medium (shouting, radio, optic fibre,
    snail mail, whatever) and analyse the measurements.

    They know that light always uses the same time both ways. ==========================================================

    Let the transit time be T, and let clock B be F ahead of clock A.
    If clocks A is showing tA, clock B is simultaneously showing tA+F.
    F may be anything from zero to a long time.

    We then have: t'B = tA + T + F
    and: t'A = tB + T - F

    so: (t'B - tA) = T + F
    (t'A - tB) = T - F

    Note that (t'B - tA) + (t'A - tB) = 2T

    If (t'B - tA) = (t'A - tB) then (T + F) = (T - F),
    which is true only if F = 0,
    the clocks simultaneously shown the same.

    Thus:
    In accordance with definition the two clocks are synchronous if
    t'B reA tA = trC#A reA tB.

    --------------------------------------------------

    Einstein's method is slightly different.
    The only difference is that the light pulse is reflected
    off a mirror at B, so tB = t'B

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "Let a ray of light start at the rCLA timerCY tA from A towards B,
    | let it at the rCLB timerCY tB be reflected at B in the direction
    | of A, and arrive again at A at the rCLA timerCY trC#A."

    tA, tB and t'A are precisely defined as:
    tA is the time shown by the clock at A when the ray leave A.
    tB is the time shown by the clock at B when the ray hits B.
    t'A is the time shown by the clock at A when the reflected
    ray hits A.

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | " In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    | tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB."

    (The German "laufen synchron" is translated with "synchronize".
    A better translation would be "are synchronous".)

    If tB reA tA rea trC#A reA tB then the clocks are not synchronous.

    -------------------

    Note that Einstein says nothing about how to make
    asynchronous clocks synchronous. He only says that
    if tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB
    then the clock at A and the clock at B are synchronous.

    This is a definition of simultaneity, not a description
    of how to synchronise clock.

    From Newsgroup: sci.physics.relativity


    How to synchronise clocks depend on a lot of circumstances,
    and it would be stupid of Einstein to define a method
    which should be applicable for all cases in all future.

    To illustrate this problem let's ask:
    How do we synchronise TAI and UTC clocks?

    Let two clocks A and B be stationary at the geoid at equator.
    Clock B is a distance L east of clock A.
    We know that clock A is synchronous with UTC, and we want to
    synchronise clock B to UTC.

    How do we do it?
    The problem is that TAI and UTC clocks are synchronous in
    the non rotating Earth centred frame of reference (ECI-frame),
    they are NOT synchronous in the ground frame.
    But the clocks A and B are moving in the ECI-frame, and
    we can't stop the spinning of the Earth to sync the clocks.

    The following calculations are made in the ECI frame.
    t is the coordinate time in the ECI-frame.
    Speed of clocks in the ECI-frame v = 465.1 m/s v/c = 1.55e-6

    We assume that at the instant t = 0 the clocks are synchronous
    according to Einstein's definition, and tA = 0 and TB = 0.
    If we send a light pulse from clock A towards clock B, clock B
    will move away at the speed v. Speed of light is c in the ECI-frame.
    We can calculate the time the light pulse will use to hit B:
    ct = L + vt => t = L/(c-v) = (L/c)ria(1 + 1.55e-6)

    That means that if clock A showed t1 when the light pulse
    was emitted, then, to be synchronous with clock A, clock B
    must show t1 + (L/c)ria(1 + 1.55e-6) when the pulse hits it.

    TAI clocks are routinely synced after the basic principle shown above.
    (The details are different of course. Satellites, optic fibre, radio)

    Another much used way to synchronise clocks to UTC is to use the GPS.

    But in the real world we never bounces light off a mirror to
    synchronise clocks.

    Right.
    That's why there are no visual observations
    of remote clocks in Einstein's definition of simultaneity.


    If so, then how could the observer in 'A' possibly know what clocks in
    'B' show?

    Please read the whole post before you respond,

    You ask the same questions over an over, and snip the part
    of my post were all your questions are addressed.

    That's unacceptable behaviour!

    So let's start again.

    READ THE WHOLE POST, AND DON'T ASK QUESTIONS WHICH ARE ANSWERED
    IN MY POST!


    Note this:
    -----------
    There is no "Einstein's method for synchronising clocks".
    There is only "Einstein's definition of simultaneity",
    which makes it possible to determine if clocks are synchronous.


    quote from o 1. Definition of Simultaneity >-------------------------------------------
    | "If at the point A of space there is a clock, an observer
    | at A can determine the time values of events in the immediate
    | proximity of A by finding the positions of the hands which
    | are simultaneous with these events.
    | If there is at the point B of space another clock in all
    | respects resembling the one at A, it is possible for an observer
    | at B to determine the time values of events in the immediate
    | neighbourhood of B."

    An observer at A can determine the time value of the clock at A.
    An observer at B can determine the time value of the clock at B.
    Local observations only!


    quote from o 1. Definition of Simultaneity >-------------------------------------------
    | "But it is not possible without further assumption to compare,
    | in respect of time, an event at A with an event at B.
    | We have so far defined only an oA timeo and a oB time.o

    The German word "Festsetzung" is translated with "assumption".
    A better translation would be "definition".

    So we have to make further _definitions_:

    quote from o 1. Definition of Simultaneity >-------------------------------------------
    | "We have not defined a common otimeo for A and B, for
    | the latter cannot be defined at all unless we establish
    | by definition that the otimeo required by light to travel
    | from A to B equals the otimeo it requires to travel from
    | B to A."

    That means that _by definition_, the light _always_ uses the
    same time to go from A to B as it uses to go from from B to A.

    However, we must use clocks to measure these times.

    So we must add:
    Clocks are synchronous if they simultaneously show the same.
    (That's what "synchronous" means!)

    Now anybody can figure out a method to see if the clocks
    are synchronous.

    I will describe a method which is slightly different from Einstein's.
    In my version A and B are symmetrical.

    1.1. The observer at A sends a light pulse towards B when
    his clock shows tA.
    1.2 The observer at B note that his clock shows t'B when
    the light pulse hits his light detector.

    2.1. The observer at B sends a light pulse towards A when
    his clock shows tB.
    2.2. The observer at A note that his clock shows t'A when
    the pulse hits his light detector.

    When these four measurements are made, the observers communicate
    through an appropriate medium (shouting, radio, optic fibre,
    snail mail, whatever) and analyse the measurements.

    They know that light always uses the same time both ways. >==========================================================

    Let the transit time be T, and let clock B be F ahead of clock A.
    If clocks A is showing tA, clock B is simultaneously showing tA+F.
    F may be anything from zero to a long time.

    We then have: t'B = tA + T + F
    and: t'A = tB + T - F

    so: (t'B - tA) = T + F
    (t'A - tB) = T - F

    Note that (t'B - tA) + (t'A - tB) = 2T

    If (t'B - tA) = (t'A - tB) then (T + F) = (T - F),
    which is true only if F = 0,
    the clocks simultaneously shown the same.

    Thus:
    In accordance with definition the two clocks are synchronous if
    t'B ? tA = t?A ? tB.

    --------------------------------------------------

    Einstein's method is slightly different.
    The only difference is that the light pulse is reflected
    off a mirror at B, so tB = t'B

    quote from o 1. Definition of Simultaneity >-------------------------------------------
    | "Let a ray of light start at the oA timeo tA from A towards B,
    | let it at the oB timeo tB be reflected at B in the direction
    | of A, and arrive again at A at the oA timeo t?A."

    tA, tB and t'A are precisely defined as:
    tA is the time shown by the clock at A when the ray leave A.
    tB is the time shown by the clock at B when the ray hits B.
    t'A is the time shown by the clock at A when the reflected
    ray hits A.

    quote from o 1. Definition of Simultaneity >-------------------------------------------
    | " In accordance with definition the two clocks synchronize if
    | tB ? tA = t?A ? tB."

    (The German "laufen synchron" is translated with "synchronize".
    A better translation would be "are synchronous".)

    If tB ? tA ? t?A ? tB then the clocks are not synchronous.

    -------------------

    Note that Einstein says nothing about how to make
    asynchronous clocks synchronous. He only says that
    if tB ? tA = t?A ? tB
    then the clock at A and the clock at B are synchronous.

    This is a definition of simultaneity, not a description
    of how to synchronise clock.


    There is no mention in the above HOW do you adjust the clocks?

    An observer at A can determine the time value of the clock at A.

    Local observations only!


    Sure, but how do you synchronize clocks with only local observations?


    Exact. This is why Einstein's synchronization checking formula is
    NOT t'_A = t_B (this would mean what you spotted as wrong) but t'_A >>>>> - t_B = t_B - t_A.


    But this equation would be wrong, if A and B move.

    In this case the time for transit of the signal wouldn't be equal on
    both ways (towards the remote station and back).

    If the distance between the clocks changes with time,
    then the clocks can't be synchronous.

    Why?

    I see no particular reason, why 'in synch' couldn't be defined for
    moving clocks.

    The clocks in Einstein's definition of simultaneity
    are stationary in the same frame of reference.

    Well, OK, but that wouldn't solve the problem of synchronization.

    To synch a remote clock to the own time, you would need to tell the
    remote observer, to which time he had to turn the knobs of his clock.

    So: how could that be done, if there is no communication?


    To make this equation valid, Einstein had to restrict the field of
    application to no-moving stations.

    So, let's be generous and assume, that he actually meant that
    restriction and simply forgot to write it down.

    He didn't forget to write it down. See quotation above.

    "If at the point A of space there is a clock"
    "If there is at the point B of space another clock"

    In more modern nomenclature we will use "frame of reference"
    in stead of "space".

    'frame of reference' means 'space plus a measure of time'.

    So 'space' and 'frame of reference' are not meant to be synonymous.


    So: now we have two stations (A and B), which do not move in respect
    to each other.

    Now we still have two disconnected clocks in A and B and want to
    synchronize them.

    No, Einstein will not synchronise them, he will see if
    they are synchronous.

    How, if he can't observe the remote clock?

    Which of these proposition are true?

    - You don't read the posts you're answering to
    - You are abysmally stupid
    - You are utterly dishonest

    Note that they are not mutually exclusive.



    Your answer didn't address the topic, which was 'synchronization of two
    remote clocks' and whether or not Einstein's method was appropriate.

    I wrote:

    no, Einstein's method as described in his article of 1905 'On the electrodynamics of moving bodies' was nonsense and would not work.

    I gave you numerous hints, why I would think that way.

    And all you have to reply was your question, whether or not I'm stupid.

    If you like to defend Einstein's position, you should somehow address
    the problem and answer my own question, how you could possibly
    snchronize clocks by Einstein's method.

    In short:

    Einstein wanted to send a light pulse from A to B and then wanted

    t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A

    to be valid.

    t'_A and t_A are measured by the clock in A and t_B by the clock in B.


    So, now we have to do the method in 'practise' (theoretically):

    1) A sends a light pulse from A towards B

    2) B recoginzes this pulse at time t_B

    3) B reflects the signal back towards A

    4) A receives the reflected pulse at time t'_A


    Now it's our aim to set the clock at B synchronous to A-time.

    (the other way round would also be possible, but not both ways at the
    same time)

    This could be done by sending a coded signal from A to B, which contains
    the time, to which the clock at B needs to be set.

    BUT: that was NOT Einstein's method.

    Instead Einstein wanted, that the condition t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A would
    be fullfilled.

    But how could that be done, if B does not know the correct value in
    measures of 'A-time', to which his clock had to be set???

    As you see from above: B is involved in the process only very briefly
    when B receives a little 'beep' (or in case of light a little flash).

    That's it!

    Now what should B do with this 'beep'????

    Or in other words: how could B possibly extract t_B from a single 'beep'???????

    Note this:

    There is no "Einstein's method for synchronising clocks".
    There is only "Einstein's definition of simultaneity",
    which makes it possible to determine if clocks are synchronous.

    An observer at A can determine the time value of the clock at A.
    An observer at B can determine the time value of the clock at B.
    Local observations only!


    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "But it is not possible without further assumption to compare,
    |-a in respect of time, an event at A with an event at B.
    |-a We have so far defined only an rCLA timerCY and a rCLB time.rCY

    The German word "Festsetzung" is translated with "assumption".
    A better translation would be "definition".

    So we have to make further _definitions_:

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "We have not defined a common rCLtimerCY for A and B, for
    |-a the latter cannot be defined at all unless we establish
    |-a by definition that the rCLtimerCY required by light to travel
    |-a from A to B equals the rCLtimerCY it requires to travel from
    |-a B to A."


    If time is local, you can't have 'common time'.

    'Common time' would require something already excluded:
    'absolute space' and 'absolute time'.

    A more geometrical explanation for this problem goes like this:

    Definition of 'vertical'.

    We have 'New York' and a vertical line there and we have 'Paris' and a vertical line there, too, but we have no vertical line, which is
    vertical in New York and Paris as well.


    Sure, that is true, but because no such line could exist.


    That means that _by definition_, the light _always_ uses the
    same time to go from A to B as it uses to go from from B to A.

    This is also a 'circular definition', because time is defined by means
    of time (t_A, t_B and t'_A).

    To break this 'vicious circle' Einstein wrote, that time would be what
    his clock says (what is nonsense, because time does not come from
    clocks, let alone Einstein's wrist watch).


    However, we must use clocks to measure these times.

    So we must add:
    Clocks are synchronous if they simultaneously show the same.
    (That's what "synchronous" means!)

    If they simultaneously show the same time, that shown time could not be 'A-time' and 'B-time' simultaneously.

    You need to decide to which time you would like to set which clock.

    That could violate 'A-time' or 'B-time' or both.

    But the definition by Einstein made no statements, to which time he
    wanted to set which clock.


    Now anybody can figure out a method to see if the clocks
    are synchronous.

    I will describe a method which is slightly different from Einstein's.
    In my version A and B are symmetrical.

    1.1. The observer at A sends a light pulse towards B when
    -a-a-a-a his clock shows tA.
    1.2-a The observer at B note that his clock shows t'B when
    -a-a-a-a the light pulse hits his light detector.

    2.1. The observer at B sends a light pulse towards A when
    -a-a-a-a his clock shows tB.
    2.2. The observer at A note that his clock shows t'A when
    -a-a-a-a the pulse hits his light detector.

    When these four measurements are made, the observers communicate
    through an appropriate medium (shouting, radio, optic fibre,
    snail mail, whatever)-a and analyse the measurements.


    Where have you found 'snail mail' or any of the other terms in
    Einstein's paper?

    You did, what tons of others did and simply added, what you regard as 'obvious'.

    But that's not allowed, since we are talking about a very specific
    paper, which was printed long ago and not about what you think.

    (the other way round would also be possible, but not both ways at the
    same time)

    We can compute an offset to apply to clock A or clock B, or even to both
    by dividing these offset by two.

    This could be done by sending a coded signal from A to B, which contains
    the time, to which the clock at B needs to be set.

    BUT: that was NOT Einstein's method.

    Definitely NOT. Hopefully.

    Instead Einstein wanted, that the condition t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A would
    be fullfilled.

    But how could that be done, if B does not know the correct value in
    measures of 'A-time', to which his clock had to be set? ? ?

    t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A is either true or not, right?

    If it's true, there is nothing to do. Let's see what could be done if it
    is not true below.

    As you see from above: B is involved in the process only very briefly
    when B receives a little 'beep' (or in case of light a little flash).

    That's it!

    Now what should B do with this 'beep'? ? ? ?

    Or in other words: how could B possibly extract t_B from a single
    'beep'? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    B can read his clock at "beep" time, right?

    Let's look again at Einstein condition : t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A

    Anyone can check if it's true or not as long as they know t'_A, t_B and
    t_A.

    If you consider that someone (at A, at B or anywhere else) checking if
    t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A
    is true or not, you can assume that he/she know these values. Your
    insistance that Einstein should have written that down explicitly is ridiculous. To subtract two value you OBVIOUSLY need to know them. Come on Thomas !!!

    Anyway, if t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A is false then the offset to be applied
    to clock B is :

    t_A + (t'_A - t_A)/2

    [Einstein did not explain this because, for reasons Paul explained to you,
    he is stating a syncronization *checking* procedure]

    Then if you recheck later using Einstein procedure you'll notice that A
    and B will be synchronous in the sense that the new values will satisfy
    t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A

    If time is local, you can't have 'common time'.

    You didn't get far before you interrupted with
    a nonsensical comment.


    'Common time' would require something already excluded:
    'absolute space' and 'absolute time'.

    Or it can mean the "common time" shown by your wristwatch.
    It probably show UTC+2h, which is the common time currently
    used in 30 countries in central Europa and several countries
    in Africa.
    (After October 28 it will be UTC+1h)


    A more geometrical explanation for this problem goes like this:

    Definition of 'vertical'.

    We have 'New York' and a vertical line there and we have 'Paris' and a vertical line there, too, but we have no vertical line, which is
    vertical in New York and Paris as well.


    Sure, that is true, but because no such line could exist.

    Say, why are you babbling what you must understand
    is irrelevant nonsense?
    No point in going on.

    But I am stubborn, so let's start from the beginning.

    -------------------------------------------

    This document defines The Special Theory of Relativity(SR): https://paulba.no/paper/Electrodynamics.pdf
    SR is a mathematical consistent theory.
    (If it weren't, it would have been born dead.)

    That means that SR is what Einstein says it is,
    you can't claim that Einstein is wrong.
    Your or anybody's options are irrelevant.

    It is even irrelevant if SR's predictions are
    in accordance with measurements.
    (But if they weren't SR would long since been
    forgotten and we wouldn't have this discussion.)

    If you do not understand and can accept this,
    you can leave now.

    But if there deep down is some logical thinking
    in you, you should continue.

    We start with this quote:

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | we establish
    | by definition that the rCLtimerCY required by light to travel
    | from A to B equals the rCLtimerCY it requires to travel from
    | B to A."

    This definition together with the two postulates of SR means:
    The speed of light is isotropic c by definition.

    This is a definition of simultaneity, se below.

    That two clocks are synchronous means that they simultaneously
    show the same.

    Now Einstein made the following _thought experiment_:

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "Let a ray of light start at the rCLA timerCY tA from A towards B,
    | let it at the rCLB timerCY tB be reflected at B in the direction
    | of A, and arrive again at A at the rCLA timerCY trC#A."

    tA is the time shown by the clock at A when the ray leave A.
    tB is the time shown by the clock at B when the ray hits B.
    t'A is the time shown by the clock at A when the reflected
    ray hits A.

    In a thought experiment, measurements can be made with
    infinite precision, and we can sit at our desk and analyse it.

    The transit time is d/c where d is the distance between A and B.
    Let clock B be F ahead of clock A, where F is between 0 and
    a long time.

    We then have: tB = tA + d/c + F
    and: t'A = tB + d/c - F

    so: (tB - tA) = d/c + F
    (t'A - tB) = d/c - F

    If (tB - tA) = (t'A - tB) then (d/c + F) = (d/c - F),
    which is true only if F = 0,
    the clocks simultaneously show the same.

    Thus:
    In accordance with definition the two clocks are synchronous if
    tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB.

    This is a logical consequence of the postulates of SR
    and that the speed of light is isotropic.

    I see no particular reason, why 'in synch' couldn't be defined for
    moving clocks.

    The clocks in Einstein's definition of simultaneity
    are stationary in the same frame of reference.

    Well, OK, but that wouldn't solve the problem of synchronization.

    To synch a remote clock to the own time, you would need to tell the
    remote observer, to which time he had to turn the knobs of his clock.

    So: how could that be done, if there is no communication?


    To make this equation valid, Einstein had to restrict the field of >>>>>> application to no-moving stations.

    Now we still have two disconnected clocks in A and B and want to

    No, Einstein will not synchronise them, he will see if
    they are synchronous.

    How, if he can't observe the remote clock?

    Which of these proposition are true?

    - You don't read the posts you're answering to
    - You are abysmally stupid
    - You are utterly dishonest

    Note that they are not mutually exclusive.



    Your answer didn't address the topic, which was 'synchronization of
    two remote clocks' and whether or not Einstein's method was appropriate.

    I wrote:

    no, Einstein's method as described in his article of 1905 'On the
    electrodynamics of moving bodies' was nonsense and would not work.

    I gave you numerous hints, why I would think that way.

    And all you have to reply was your question, whether or not I'm stupid.

    I already did, NUMEROUS times !!!

    If you like to defend Einstein's position, you should somehow address
    the problem and answer my own question, how you could possibly
    snchronize clocks by Einstein's method.

    In short:

    Einstein wanted to send a light pulse from A to B and then wanted

    t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A

    to be valid.

    t'_A and t_A are measured by the clock in A and t_B by the clock in B.


    So, now we have to do the method in 'practise' (theoretically):

    Practice

    1) A sends a light pulse from A towards B

    2) B recoginzes this pulse at time t_B

    3) B reflects the signal back towards A

    4) A receives the reflected pulse at time t'_A


    Now it's our aim to set the clock at B synchronous to A-time.

    (the other way round would also be possible, but not both ways at the
    same time)

    We can compute an offset to apply to clock A or clock B, or even to both
    by dividing these offset by two.
    This could be done by sending a coded signal from A to B, which
    contains the time, to which the clock at B needs to be set.

    BUT: that was NOT Einstein's method.

    Definitely NOT. Hopefully.

    Instead Einstein wanted, that the condition t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A
    would be fullfilled.

    But how could that be done, if B does not know the correct value in
    measures of 'A-time', to which his clock had to be set? ? ?

    t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A is either true or not, right?

    If it's true, there is nothing to do. Let's see what could be done if it
    is not true below.

    As you see from above: B is involved in the process only very briefly
    when B receives a little 'beep' (or in case of light a little flash).

    That's it!

    Now what should B do with this 'beep'? ? ? ?
    Or in other words: how could B possibly extract t_B from a single
    'beep'? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    B can read his clock at "beep" time, right?

    Sure, but B can ONLY read the own clock and 't_B' from that.

    t'_A and t_A are unknown in A, unless A tells the observer in B, what
    t_A and t'_A are.

    Somehow A needs to send this information to B, because otherwise B
    cannot compute t'_A - t_B or t_B - t_A.

    Another problem occurs, because t'_A is later than t_B.

    This means, that the time of arrival of the reflected signal isn't
    detectable in B at all.

    Since time-informations get outdated very fast, the observer in A would
    need to figure out the delay in advance, encode it into the timing
    signal, too, and send the result to the remote station.

    Another option would be, if the calculation is done solely at A and B
    sends only the own time t_B to A, once the 'beep' arrives there, A
    calculates the offset and sends the result back.

    By that value B turns his clock forwards or backwards and both clocks
    get synchronized, though only to 'A-time'.

    To set both clocks to a common time that is neither 'a-time' nor '
    B-time' would be problematic, since 'c-time' would be arbitrary.

    Best bet would be: set the clock in B to 'A-time'.


    Let's look again at Einstein condition : t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A

    Anyone can check if it's true or not as long as they know t'_A, t_B and
    t_A.

    If you consider that someone (at A, at B or anywhere else) checking if
    t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A
    is true or not, you can assume that he/she know these values. Your insistance that Einstein should have written that down explicitly is ridiculous. To subtract two value you OBVIOUSLY need to know them. Come
    on Thomas !!!

    Anyway, if t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A is false then the offset to be applied
    to clock B is :

    t_A + (t'_A - t_A)/2

    In my view it should be:

    t_B = (t'_A - t_A)/2

    This wouldn't helpt B in any way, because t'_A is unknown in B, because
    t'_A is the time of arrival of the reflected signal at A.

    That time is unknown in B!

    If Einstein's method to synchronize stationary remote clocks is

    But how could you understand this later part if don't even understand a SINGLE WORD of the part about synchronizing co-moving (i.e. mutually at rest) clocks?

    You cannot even spot that if someone is supposed to compute A - B he/she obviously has to know A and B. You are an helpless case of dementia, hypocrisy and stubbornness.


    Well, 'A' and 'B' were not numbers, but NAMES of two remote locations.

    That's why 'A-B' wouldn't make sense, to beginn with.

    NO!!!

    because we are dealing with clocks in significant distances in relativity.

    Let's take 'indicating' as impression of 'to see' and 'seeing' as human ability to have visual impression from received light.

    Now this light carries information, but needs time to travel.

    Therefore: if we see a certain remote clock showing e.g. 1:00:00 pm,
    that isn't the correct time at the clock's location, because you need to
    take that time for transit (='delay') into consideration.

    This delay is usually way too small to be of any significance.

    But for cosmological distances the delay can get extremely large.

    Is such cases, e.g. for 100 million years, it would be mandatory to
    think about the influence of such huge numbers.

    If it's true, there is nothing to do. Let's see what could be done if it
    is not true below.

    As you see from above: B is involved in the process only very briefly
    when B receives a little 'beep' (or in case of light a little flash).

    That's it!

    Now what should B do with this 'beep'? ? ? ?
    Or in other words: how could B possibly extract t_B from a single
    'beep'? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    B can read his clock at "beep" time, right?

    Sure, but B can ONLY read the own clock and 't_B' from that.

    t'_A and t_A are unknown in A, unless A tells the observer in B, what
    t_A and t'_A are.

    A knows t'_A and t_A. What prevent this information to be conmunicated (by
    any mean) to B
    (same for t_B to be communicated to A).

    Somehow A needs to send this information to B, because otherwise B
    cannot compute t'_A - t_B or t_B - t_A.

    This is exactly what I told you. YES.


    Another problem occurs, because t'_A is later than t_B.

    This is NOT a problem.

    This means, that the time of arrival of the reflected signal isn't detectable in B at all.

    This is NOT a problem : this information play NO role in the procedure.

    Since time-informations get outdated very fast, the observer in A would
    need to figure out the delay in advance, encode it into the timing
    signal, too, and send the result to the remote station.

    No. Only t_A, t_B and t'_A are needed. NOTHING MORE.

    Another option would be [...]

    We don't care. We're talking about Einstein procedure.


    Let's look again at Einstein condition : t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A

    Anyone can check if it's true or not as long as they know t'_A, t_B and
    t_A.

    If you consider that someone (at A, at B or anywhere else) checking if
    t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A
    is true or not, you can assume that he/she know these values. Your
    insistance that Einstein should have written that down explicitly is
    ridiculous. To subtract two value you OBVIOUSLY need to know them. Come
    on Thomas !!!

    Anyway, if t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A is false then the offset to be applied
    to clock B is :

    t_A + (t'_A - t_A)/2

    In my view it should be:

    t_B = (t'_A - t_A)/2

    No. This is new_t_B = old_t_B + t_A + (t'A - t_A)/2
    or new_t_B = old_t_B + (t_A + t'_A)/2

    This is what an offset is : it is added to the current value, at any later time, showed by clock B.

    This wouldn't helpt B in any way, because t'_A is unknown in B, because
    t'_A is the time of arrival of the reflected signal at A.

    That time is unknown in B!

    It doesn't matter. Only t_A, t_B and t'_A need to be known by the clock
    you intend to "correct".

    Well, 'A' and 'B' were not numbers, but NAMES of two remote locations.

    That's why 'A-B' wouldn't make sense, to beginn with.

    You are dense. A and B in my post are not about "clock A" or "clock B". I

    Let's rephrase :

    But this equation would be wrong, if A and B move.

    In this case the time for transit of the signal wouldn't be

    If the distance between the clocks changes with time,

    In more modern nomenclature we will use "frame of reference"

    Your answer didn't address the topic, which was 'synchronization of
    two remote clocks' and whether or not Einstein's method was
    appropriate.

    I wrote:

    no, Einstein's method as described in his article of 1905 'On the
    electrodynamics of moving bodies' was nonsense and would not work.

    I gave you numerous hints, why I would think that way.

    And all you have to reply was your question, whether or not I'm stupid. >>>
    I already did, NUMEROUS times !!!

    If you like to defend Einstein's position, you should somehow
    address the problem and answer my own question, how you could
    possibly snchronize clocks by Einstein's method.

    In short:

    Einstein wanted to send a light pulse from A to B and then wanted

    t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A

    to be valid.

    t'_A and t_A are measured by the clock in A and t_B by the clock in B. >>>>

    So, now we have to do the method in 'practise' (theoretically):

    Practice

    1) A sends a light pulse from A towards B

    2) B recoginzes this pulse at time t_B

    3) B reflects the signal back towards A

    4) A receives the reflected pulse at time t'_A


    Now it's our aim to set the clock at B synchronous to A-time.

    (the other way round would also be possible, but not both ways at
    the same time)

    We can compute an offset to apply to clock A or clock B, or even to
    both by dividing these offset by two.
    This could be done by sending a coded signal from A to B, which
    contains the time, to which the clock at B needs to be set.

    BUT: that was NOT Einstein's method.

    Definitely NOT. Hopefully.

    Instead Einstein wanted, that the condition t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A
    would be fullfilled.

    But how could that be done, if B does not know the correct value in
    measures of 'A-time', to which his clock had to be set? ? ?

    t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A is either true or not, right?

    If it's true, there is nothing to do. Let's see what could be done if
    it is not true below.

    Ok.

    But in the case of 'snail mail' the only possible way would be this:

    A sends a signal at t_A

    B receives a 'ping' at a certain time t_B, which the observer reads from
    his own clock.

    He writes that value down and mails the letter to A.

    A knows when he had sent out the signal in terms of 'A-time' t_A.

    From the time of arrival of the reflected signal t'_A he can figure out
    the delay and when B should have received the signal in measures of
    'A-time'.

    Now A receives the letter from B and reads, what the observer B actually measured in terms of 'B-time' of the same event.

    A can now figure out the discrepancy between A-time and B-time.

    This would enable A to set his clock accordingly, so that it would show 'B-time' and both clocks are in synch.

    But there are two problems with this solution:

    1) A couldn't really use a 'B-time-clock' in his environment, which
    based on 'A-time'.

    2) Actually he wanted the clock in B to become set to 'A-time'.

    You, again, did not pay attention. Things are far more simple than you nonsense.

    Step 1 : perform the exchange of light signal as described in Einstein's article.
    When it is done here is the situation :
    - observer at A know t_A and t'_A
    - observer at B knows t_B

    Step 1.5:

    A writes down t_A on a piece of paper and sent it by snail mail, horse, pigeon, whatever to B.

    Step 2

    At reception (the time of reception DOES NOT MATTER), B can check :

    Is t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A ?

    If TRUE then do nothing : clocks are already in sync (Einstein procedure explicitly)
    If FALSE then B can apply an offset to its clock, i.e add the value (t_A + t'_A)/2 to whatever it is displaying.

    Clocks are then in sync.

    Your answer didn't address the topic, which was 'synchronization
    of two remote clocks' and whether or not Einstein's method was
    appropriate.

    I wrote:

    no, Einstein's method as described in his article of 1905 'On the >>>>>> electrodynamics of moving bodies' was nonsense and would not work. >>>>>>
    I gave you numerous hints, why I would think that way.

    And all you have to reply was your question, whether or not I'm
    stupid.

    I already did, NUMEROUS times !!!

    If you like to defend Einstein's position, you should somehow
    address the problem and answer my own question, how you could
    possibly snchronize clocks by Einstein's method.

    In short:

    Einstein wanted to send a light pulse from A to B and then wanted

    t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A

    to be valid.

    t'_A and t_A are measured by the clock in A and t_B by the clock
    in B.


    So, now we have to do the method in 'practise' (theoretically):

    Practice

    1) A sends a light pulse from A towards B

    2) B recoginzes this pulse at time t_B

    3) B reflects the signal back towards A

    4) A receives the reflected pulse at time t'_A


    Now it's our aim to set the clock at B synchronous to A-time.

    (the other way round would also be possible, but not both ways at >>>>>> the same time)

    We can compute an offset to apply to clock A or clock B, or even to >>>>> both by dividing these offset by two.
    This could be done by sending a coded signal from A to B, which
    contains the time, to which the clock at B needs to be set.

    BUT: that was NOT Einstein's method.

    Definitely NOT. Hopefully.

    Instead Einstein wanted, that the condition t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A >>>>>> would be fullfilled.

    But how could that be done, if B does not know the correct value
    in measures of 'A-time', to which his clock had to be set? ? ?

    t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A is either true or not, right?

    If it's true, there is nothing to do. Let's see what could be done
    if it is not true below.

    As you see from above: B is involved in the process only very
    briefly when B receives a little 'beep' (or in case of light a
    little flash).

    That's it!

    Now what should B do with this 'beep'? ? ? ?
    Or in other words: how could B possibly extract t_B from a single >>>>>> 'beep'? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    B can read his clock at "beep" time, right?

    Sure, but B can ONLY read the own clock and 't_B' from that.

    t'_A and t_A are unknown in A, unless A tells the observer in B,
    what t_A and t'_A are.

    A knows t'_A and t_A. What prevent this information to be
    conmunicated (by any mean) to B
    (same for t_B to be communicated to A).

    Somehow A needs to send this information to B, because otherwise B
    cannot compute t'_A - t_B or t_B - t_A.

    This is exactly what I told you. YES.


    Another problem occurs, because t'_A is later than t_B.

    This is NOT a problem.

    This means, that the time of arrival of the reflected signal isn't
    detectable in B at all.

    This is NOT a problem : this information play NO role in the procedure.

    Since time-informations get outdated very fast, the observer in A
    would need to figure out the delay in advance, encode it into the
    timing signal, too, and send the result to the remote station.

    No. Only t_A, t_B and t'_A are needed. NOTHING MORE.

    Another option would be [...]

    We don't care. We're talking about Einstein procedure.

    Ok.

    But in the case of 'snail mail' the only possible way would be this:

    A sends a signal at t_A

    B receives a 'ping' at a certain time t_B, which the observer reads
    from his own clock.

    He writes that value down and mails the letter to A.

    A knows when he had sent out the signal in terms of 'A-time' t_A.

    -aFrom the time of arrival of the reflected signal t'_A he can figure
    out the delay and when B should have received the signal in measures
    of 'A-time'.

    Now A receives the letter from B and reads, what the observer B
    actually measured in terms of 'B-time' of the same event.

    A can now figure out the discrepancy between A-time and B-time.

    This would enable A to set his clock accordingly, so that it would
    show 'B-time' and both clocks are in synch.

    But there are two problems with this solution:

    1) A couldn't really use a 'B-time-clock' in his environment, which
    based on 'A-time'.

    2) Actually he wanted the clock in B to become set to 'A-time'.

    You, again, did not pay attention. Things are far more simple than you nonsense.

    Step 1 : perform the exchange of light signal as described in Einstein's article.
    When it is done here is the situation :
    - observer at A know t_A and t'_A
    - observer at B knows t_B

    Step 1.5:

    A writes down t_A on a piece of paper and sent it by snail mail, horse, pigeon, whatever to B.

    Step 2

    At reception (the time of reception DOES NOT MATTER), B can check :

    Is t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A ?

    If TRUE then do nothing : clocks are already in sync (Einstein procedure explicitly)
    If FALSE then B can apply an offset to its clock, i.e add the value (t_A
    + t'_A)/2 to whatever it is displaying.

    Clocks are then in sync.


    Ok

    That seems to be possible, too.

    Actually I have not found this solution myself, even if I have dealt
    with this problem for quite a lot of time.

    But why didn't Einstein mention this solution?

    My problem was, that I thought about 'local time' and therefore wanted 'A-time' to be named 't' and 'B-time' values 'tau'.

    So, in my opinion all variables with a 't' are meant as 'A-time' and
    based on system K.

    But that wasn't actually Einstein's use of the letter 't'.

    It was only my impression of Einstein's intentions, because I have read
    the paper several times and introduced concepts from that paper which
    occured later also to the beginning, where they do not apply.

    Ok

    At least ! One once of honesty !

    That seems to be possible, too.

    It is.

    Actually I have not found this solution myself, even if I have dealt
    with this problem for quite a lot of time.

    The fact that you failed to find what need two lines of algebra should
    ring a bell in your mind, shouldn't it?

    But why didn't Einstein mention this solution?

    Paul told you. Einstein only need a synchronisation checking procedure in order to go on the definition of a common time within a frame of
    reference.

    The way clocks are actually, in practice, synchronized can use other means than light propagation in vacuum. You may read some papers from CERN of Fermilab on this issue. It is about detectors that are only a few
    centimeters away.

    My problem was, that I thought about 'local time' and therefore wanted 'A-time' to be named 't' and 'B-time' values 'tau'.

    Why "what you want" would be of any interest when it comes to analyze Einstein's paper?

    tau is a time coordinate in another frame of reference, definitely not "B-time".

    Nevertheless tau is defined in this *other* frame of reference in
    *exactly* the same way t is (with t_A, t'_A, t_B etc.) with a set of
    clocks at rest in this other frame.

    IMHO what Einstein should have been avoid is to label frames (what he
    called "system") as "stationary" or "moving". It didn't mislead readers at that time who were aware of the Relativity Principle from Galileo but it definitely mislead a lot of people, including you.

    So, in my opinion all variables with a 't' are meant as 'A-time' and
    based on system K.

    You opinion is wrong.

    But that wasn't actually Einstein's use of the letter 't'.

    It wasn't, sure.

    It was only my impression of Einstein's intentions, because I have read
    the paper several times and introduced concepts from that paper which occured later also to the beginning, where they do not apply.

    You have introduced your own fantasies into a paper you completely failed
    to understand. This leads to the absolute bunch of nonsense that is your comments on it.

    So, in my opinion all variables with a 't' are meant as 'A-time' and
    based on system K.

    You opinion is wrong.

    More precisely: t is "A-time" if it is labeling an event at the position
    of clock A. Otherwise it is "B-time" (clock B being at the position of
    this event). These two values are assumed to be taken from clocks at B synchronized with A according to the definition in paragraph I.1.

    Same for "tau" btw, in the "moving system" you can set up a network of
    clocks synchronized the same way as in the "stationary system" :

    "Further, let the time t of the stationary system be determined for all
    points thereof at which there are clocks by means of light signals in the manner indicated in -o 1; similarly let the time $\tau$ of the moving
    system be determined for all points of the moving system at which there
    are clocks at rest relatively to that system by applying the method, given
    in -o 1, of light signals between the points at which the latter clocks
    are located."

    See? tau is defined exactly the same way t is, but in another "system"
    i.e. "frame of reference".

    Ok

    That seems to be possible, too.

    Actually I have not found this solution myself, even if I have dealt
    with this problem for quite a lot of time.

    Python and I have explained this very method to synchronise clocks
    _several_ times.

    This is however beside the point, because this method of synchronising
    clocks are never used in the real world.



    But why didn't Einstein mention this solution?

    Because Einstein's _only_ point was to define simultaneity,
    it was not to show how you can make two asynchronous clocks
    synchronous.

    Einstein's method to see if clocks are synchronous, is a thought
    experiment.

    A thought experiment is to see the logical consequences of a set
    of assumptions.
    A thought experiment does not prove that the assumptions are true.


    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "If at the point A of space there is a clock, an observer
    | at A can determine the time values of events in the immediate
    | proximity of A by finding the positions of the hands which
    | are simultaneous with these events.
    | If there is at the point B of space another clock in all
    | respects resembling the one at A, it is possible for an observer
    | at B to determine the time values of events in the immediate
    | neighbourhood of B."

    With what kind of precession do you think it in 1905 was possible
    to "determine the time values of events" "by finding the positions
    of the hands"? And the observer at B had to find the position of
    the hands when he saw the ray hit the mirror.
    At the very best the precision would be in the order of second,
    which is many order of magnitudes more than the transit time.
    (Einstein never imagined that point B should be beyond the Moon.)

    So of course this is a thought experiment and was never meant
    to really be performed. And Einstein expected the reader to
    understand that. Which physicist and other knowledgeable
    people did.

    You can't synchronise real clocks with a thought experiment,
    so that was obviously not Einstein's intension.

    I have posted the following before. Will you read it this time?

    ---------------------------------


    This document defines The Special Theory of Relativity(SR): https://paulba.no/paper/Electrodynamics.pdf
    SR is a mathematical consistent theory.
    (If it weren't, it would have been born dead.)

    That means that SR is what Einstein says it is,
    you can't claim that Einstein is wrong.
    Your or anybody's options are irrelevant.

    It is even irrelevant if SR's predictions are
    in accordance with measurements.
    (But if they weren't SR would long since been
    forgotten and we wouldn't have this discussion.)


    We start with this quote:

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | we establish
    | by definition that the rCLtimerCY required by light to travel
    | from A to B equals the rCLtimerCY it requires to travel from
    | B to A."

    This definition together with the two postulates of SR means:
    The speed of light is isotropic c by definition.

    This is a definition of simultaneity, se below.

    That two clocks are synchronous means that they simultaneously
    show the same.

    Now Einstein made the following _thought experiment_:

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "Let a ray of light start at the rCLA timerCY tA from A towards B,
    | let it at the rCLB timerCY tB be reflected at B in the direction
    | of A, and arrive again at A at the rCLA timerCY trC#A."

    tA is the time shown by the clock at A when the ray leave A.
    tB is the time shown by the clock at B when the ray hits B.
    t'A is the time shown by the clock at A when the reflected
    ray hits A.

    In a thought experiment, measurements can be made with
    infinite precision, and we can sit at our desk and analyse it.

    The transit time is d/c where d is the distance between A and B.
    Let clock B be F ahead of clock A, where F is between 0 and
    a long time.

    We then have: tB = tA + d/c + F
    and: t'A = tB + d/c - F

    so: (tB - tA) = d/c + F
    (t'A - tB) = d/c - F

    If (tB - tA) = (t'A - tB) then (d/c + F) = (d/c - F),
    which is true only if F = 0,
    the clocks simultaneously show the same.

    Thus:
    In accordance with definition the two clocks are synchronous if
    tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB.

    This is a logical consequence of the postulates of SR
    and that the speed of light is isotropic.

    But why didn't Einstein mention this solution?

    Because:

    How to synchronise clocks depend on a lot of circumstances,
    and it would be stupid of Einstein to define a method
    which should be applicable for all cases in all future.

    To illustrate the problem let's ask:
    How do we synchronise TAI and UTC clocks?

    Let two clocks A and B be stationary at the geoid at equator.
    Clock B is a distance L east of clock A.
    We know that clock A is synchronous with UTC, and we want to
    synchronise clock B to UTC.

    How do we do it?
    The problem is that TAI and UTC clocks are synchronous in
    the non rotating Earth centred frame of reference (ECI-frame),
    they are NOT synchronous in the ground frame.
    But the clocks A and B are moving in the ECI-frame, and
    we can't stop the spinning of the Earth to sync the clocks.

    The following calculations are made in the ECI frame.
    t is the coordinate time in the ECI-frame.
    Speed of clocks in the ECI-frame v = 465.1 m/s v/c = 1.55e-6

    We assume that at the instant t = 0 the clocks are synchronous
    according to Einstein's definition, and tA = 0 and TB = 0.
    If we send a light pulse from clock A towards clock B, clock B
    will move away at the speed v. Speed of light is c in the ECI-frame.
    We can calculate the time the light pulse will use to hit B:
    ct = L + vt => t = L/(c-v) = (L/c)ria(1 + 1.55e-6)

    That means that if clock A showed t1 when the light pulse
    was emitted, then, to be synchronous with clock A, clock B
    must show t1 + (L/c)ria(1 + 1.55e-6) when the pulse hits it.

    TAI clocks are routinely synced after the basic principle shown above.
    (The details are different of course. Satellites, optic fibre, radio)

    Another much used way to synchronise clocks to UTC is to use the GPS.



    When TAI and GPS clocks are synchronised, the clocks are not
    usually changed, but a correction factor is updated.
    In GPS this is typically done once a day.

    My problem was, that I thought about 'local time' and therefore wanted
    'A-time' to be named 't' and 'B-time' values 'tau'.

    Why "what you want" would be of any interest when it comes to analyze Einstein's paper?

    Well, actually the author had to tell his story and the reader had to read.

    If the author writes stories, which you could interpret in many
    different ways, than the text has to be understood by the least likely interpretation, because ambiguity goes against the author.

    tau is a time coordinate in another frame of reference, definitely not "B-time".

    Sure: A has a time called 'A-time' and B a time called 'B-time'.

    Since 'A-time' is not equal to 'B-time' A and B belong to two different
    frames of reference.


    Nevertheless tau is defined in this *other* frame of reference in
    *exactly* the same way t is (with t_A, t'_A, t_B etc.) with a set of
    clocks at rest in this other frame.

    IMHO what Einstein should have been avoid is to label frames (what he
    called "system") as "stationary" or "moving". It didn't mislead readers
    at that time who were aware of the Relativity Principle from Galileo but
    it definitely mislead a lot of people, including you.

    I don't agree here, because I took 'at rest' as synonym for 'the own
    system' and 'moving' for 'remote'.

    But you are in fact right, that relativity is mutally symmetric and we
    are in fact free to chose, which frame is moveing and which one at rest.

    So, in my opinion all variables with a 't' are meant as 'A-time' and
    based on system K.

    You opinion is wrong.
    Well, it was actually a guess.

    That I had to guess, that was actually not my fault.

    But that wasn't actually Einstein's use of the letter 't'.

    It wasn't, sure.

    Later Einstein used two different names for the time measure in the own
    and the remote system.

    This is what I would call 'backfire', because if this scheme was used
    later, it had for consistency been used earlier, too.>
    It was only my impression of Einstein's intentions, because I have
    read the paper several times and introduced concepts from that paper
    which occured later also to the beginning, where they do not apply.

    You have introduced your own fantasies into a paper you completely
    failed to understand. This leads to the absolute bunch of nonsense that
    is your comments on it.

    No, not completely.
    I have not found a way, by which I could synchronize two remote clocks
    by the use of Einstein's equation, because I had ascribed variables to
    the wrong points.

    But, as a matter of fact, I'm as a reader are not supposed to read
    Einstein's mind.

    I wanted actually proper definitions of variables (actually demanded them).

    What I also wanted would be 'continuity' in the setting and the used
    variable names.

    Einstein in contrast made it extremely difficult to find out, what he
    actually had in mind (what in -my oppinion- an author is actually
    obliged to write).

    I wrote my comments from the hypothetical perferspective of a professor
    and treated the text as if it would be the homework of a student.

    In this my rule was 'ambiguity counts against the author'.

    My problem was, that I thought about 'local time' and therefore wanted
    'A-time' to be named 't' and 'B-time' values 'tau'.

    Why "what you want" would be of any interest when it comes to analyze
    Einstein's paper?

    Well, actually the author had to tell his story and the reader had to read.

    If the author writes stories, which you could interpret in many
    different ways, than the text has to be understood by the least likely interpretation, because ambiguity goes against the author.

    Einstein's paper left no room for interpretation. You introduced them
    because you misunderstood 99% of what he wrote.

    tau is a time coordinate in another frame of reference, definitely not
    "B-time".

    Sure: A has a time called 'A-time' and B a time called 'B-time'
    Since 'A-time' is not equal to 'B-time'

    What could it means for two values that are constantly changing (a number displayed by a clock !) to be "equal" or "not equal" ?

    A and B belong to two different frames of reference.

    No. They are clocks mutually at rest, which is a definition of devices in
    a single frame of reference.

    Moreover everything belong to ALL frames of reference. Everything than happens, happens for anyone.

    Nevertheless tau is defined in this *other* frame of reference in
    *exactly* the same way t is (with t_A, t'_A, t_B etc.) with a set of
    clocks at rest in this other frame.

    IMHO what Einstein should have been avoid is to label frames (what he
    called "system") as "stationary" or "moving". It didn't mislead readers
    at that time who were aware of the Relativity Principle from Galileo but
    it definitely mislead a lot of people, including you.

    I don't agree here, because I took 'at rest' as synonym for 'the own
    system' and 'moving' for 'remote'.

    This is a misunderstanding on you side. Einstein didn't wrote anything suggesting your interpretation.

    But you are in fact right, that relativity is mutally symmetric and we
    are in fact free to chose, which frame is moveing and which one at rest.

    Nice to read. Are you progressing in the direction that your comments are asinine?

    So, in my opinion all variables with a 't' are meant as 'A-time' and
    based on system K.

    You opinion is wrong.
    Well, it was actually a guess.

    That I had to guess, that was actually not my fault.

    It is. You guessed wrong because you are completely uneducated in physics,
    and probably mentally challenged. Einstein wrote an article aimed to
    educated wise people.

    But that wasn't actually Einstein's use of the letter 't'.

    It wasn't, sure.

    Later Einstein used two different names for the time measure in the own
    and the remote system.

    Oh really? Where?

    This is what I would call 'backfire', because if this scheme was used
    later, it had for consistency been used earlier, too.>

    It is.

    It was only my impression of Einstein's intentions, because I have
    read the paper several times and introduced concepts from that paper
    which occured later also to the beginning, where they do not apply.

    You have introduced your own fantasies into a paper you completely
    failed to understand. This leads to the absolute bunch of nonsense that
    is your comments on it.

    No, not completely.

    Completly.

    I have not found a way, by which I could synchronize two remote clocks
    by the use of Einstein's equation, because I had ascribed variables to
    the wrong points.

    You admit your analysis was wrong then? Good!!!

    But, as a matter of fact, I'm as a reader are not supposed to read Einstein's mind.

    I wanted actually proper definitions of variables (actually demanded them).

    They are there, you missed them.

    What I also wanted would be 'continuity' in the setting and the used variable names.

    Einstein in contrast made it extremely difficult to find out, what he actually had in mind (what in -my oppinion- an author is actually
    obliged to write).

    It didn't, most students have NO problem reading and understanding this article.

    You had, so what?

    I wrote my comments from the hypothetical perferspective of a professor
    and treated the text as if it would be the homework of a student.

    Which is ridiculous if you are not mastering the skills, knowledge,
    experience a professor in physics should have. Don't you think?

    In this my rule was 'ambiguity counts against the author'.

    There is 0% ambiguity in Einstein's paper.

    So, in my opinion all variables with a 't' are meant as 'A-time' and
    based on system K.

    You opinion is wrong.

    More precisely: t is "A-time" if it is labeling an event at the position
    of clock A. Otherwise it is "B-time" (clock B being at the position of
    this event). These two values are assumed to be taken from clocks at B synchronized with A according to the definition in paragraph I.1.

    You forgot that 'snail mail' was required for your method in -o1.

    But how would you do that, if system B is receding at significant pace?

    Same for "tau" btw, in the "moving system" you can set up a network of clocks synchronized the same way as in the "stationary system" :

    No: the method from -o1 required, that A and B do not move in respect to
    each other.

    If they do, a different definition for synchronicity would be necessary:

    you cannot use the equation from -o 1:
    t_B - t_A = t'_A - t_B

    because that is only valid if A and B do not move.

    My proposal was:

    you introduce a hypothetical signal with infinite speed and add the
    delay 'by hand'.


    This would also be possible, if A or B move.

    The problem was: you need to know the delay and Einstein made no
    attempts to figure that out.

    "Further, let the time t of the stationary system be determined for all points thereof at which there are clocks by means of light signals in
    the manner indicated in -o 1; similarly let the time $\tau$ of the moving system be determined for all points of the moving system at which there
    are clocks at rest relatively to that system by applying the method,
    given in -o 1, of light signals between the points at which the latter clocks are located."

    See? tau is defined exactly the same way t is, but in another "system"
    i.e. "frame of reference".

    Sure, but Einstein didn't use the term 'frame of reference' in that article.

    Instead he used only coordinate systems and time measures, which are associated with these coordinate systems.

    BUT: the time t was NOT valid uniformly throughout its coordinate
    system, but only in the vicinity of the clock.

    This means: Einstein gave the impression, as if he wanted top make time dependent of the location.

    This in turn would only make sense, if he didn't wanted to take the
    delay into consideration.

    Since 'A-time' is not equal to 'B-time'

    What could it means for two values that are constantly changing (a
    number displayed by a clock !) to be "equal" or "not equal" ?

    A and B belong to two different frames of reference.

    No. They are clocks mutually at rest, which is a definition of devices
    in a single frame of reference.

    Moreover everything belong to ALL frames of reference. Everything than happens, happens for anyone.

    No, since you are confusing 'coordinate system' and 'frame of reference'.

    Every single point is of course part of any other (Euclidean) coordinate system, even if the coordinates are different.

    But 'frame of reference' contains time, too.

    If now two frames of reference use different time measure 'A-time' and 'B-time', they could have as well different variables for time, which
    were t and tau.

    It is improtant, that you cannot add or subtract t and tau, because they
    are measures belonging to different frames of reference.

    If we have some event at point B, which has the location 'B' and time
    tau, then we cannot use 'A-time', t or point A.

    To make different measures usuable, we need to conduct what is called a 'coordinate transformation'.


    Nevertheless tau is defined in this *other* frame of reference in
    *exactly* the same way t is (with t_A, t'_A, t_B etc.) with a set of

    I usually 'halt' the observer and declare the observer to be at rest.

    This is just an arbitrary choice, but a practical one.

    You could also say, the observer would move with multiples of c, if you
    prefer that. But such a setting isn't very useful.


    Therefore my standard setiing setting is: the observer doesn't move and everything else does.

    Einstein on the other hand used 'at rest' numerous time, but didn't say,
    in respect to what the system K was at rest.

    I personally didn't like that and used to say: the observer does not
    move in respect to himself.

    That's why the observer is at rest. But that is just an arbitrary choice
    which could be made otherwise.

    Why do you think that your "standard setting" is relevant to
    Einstein's definition of simultaneity?

    --------------------------

    Why have you not responded to the following?
    If it is something you do not understand, ask.



    Einstein's _only_ point was to define simultaneity,
    it was not to show how you can make two asynchronous clocks
    synchronous.

    Einstein's method to see if clocks are synchronous,
    is a thought experiment.

    A thought experiment is to see the logical consequences of a set
    of assumptions.
    A thought experiment does not prove that the assumptions are true.


    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "If at the point A of space there is a clock, an observer
    | at A can determine the time values of events in the immediate
    | proximity of A by finding the positions of the hands which
    | are simultaneous with these events.
    | If there is at the point B of space another clock in all
    | respects resembling the one at A, it is possible for an observer
    | at B to determine the time values of events in the immediate
    | neighbourhood of B."

    With what kind of precession do you think it in 1905 was possible
    to "determine the time values of events" "by finding the positions
    of the hands"? And the observer at B had to find the position of
    the hands when he saw the ray hit the mirror.
    At the very best the precision would be in the order of second,
    which is many order of magnitudes more than the transit time.
    (Einstein never imagined that point B should be beyond the Moon.)

    So of course this is a thought experiment and was never meant
    to really be performed. Einstein expected the reader to
    understand that. Which physicist and other knowledgeable
    people did.

    You can't synchronise real clocks with a thought experiment,
    so that was obviously not Einstein's intension.

    I have posted the following before. Will you read it this time?

    ---------------------------------


    This document defines The Special Theory of Relativity(SR): https://paulba.no/paper/Electrodynamics.pdf
    SR is a mathematical consistent theory.
    (If it weren't, it would have been born dead.)

    That means that SR is what Einstein says it is,
    you can't claim that Einstein is wrong.
    Your or anybody's opinions are irrelevant.

    It is even irrelevant if SR's predictions are
    in accordance with measurements.
    (But if they weren't SR would long since been
    forgotten and we wouldn't have this discussion.)


    We start with this quote:

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | we establish
    | by definition that the rCLtimerCY required by light to travel
    | from A to B equals the rCLtimerCY it requires to travel from
    | B to A."

    Note that this statement imply that A and B are stationary
    relative to each other.

    This definition together with the two postulates of SR means:
    The speed of light is isotropic c by definition.

    This is a definition of simultaneity, se below.

    That two clocks are synchronous means that they
    simultaneously show the same.

    Now Einstein made the following _thought experiment_:

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "Let a ray of light start at the rCLA timerCY tA from A towards B,
    | let it at the rCLB timerCY tB be reflected at B in the direction
    | of A, and arrive again at A at the rCLA timerCY trC#A."

    tA is the time shown by the clock at A when the ray leave A.
    tB is the time shown by the clock at B when the ray hits B.
    t'A is the time shown by the clock at A when the reflected
    ray hits A.

    In a thought experiment measurements can be made with
    infinite precision, and we can sit at our desks and analyse it.

    The transit time is d/c where d is the distance between A and B.
    Let clock B be F ahead of clock A, where F is between 0 and
    a long time.

    We then have: tB = tA + d/c + F
    and: t'A = tB + d/c - F

    so: (tB - tA) = d/c + F
    (t'A - tB) = d/c - F

    If (tB - tA) = (t'A - tB) then (d/c + F) = (d/c - F),
    which is true only if F = 0,
    the clocks simultaneously show the same.

    This means:

    TB = (TA + d/c)
    When clock B shows TB clock A simultaneously
    shows (TA + d/c), which is the same.

    t'A = (tB + d/c)
    When clock A shows t'A clock B simultaneously
    shows (tB + d/c), which is the same.


    Thus:
    In accordance with definition the two clocks are synchronous if
    tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB.

    This is a logical consequence of the postulates of SR
    and that the speed of light is isotropic.

    Einstein's definition of simultaneity is mathematically
    consistent.

    This doesn't say anything about whether or not SR's
    predictions are in accordance with measurements.
    Only real experiments can do that.

    ---------------------------------


    This document defines The Special Theory of Relativity(SR): https://paulba.no/paper/Electrodynamics.pdf

    IMHO what Einstein should have been avoid is to label frames (what

    I don't agree here, because I took 'at rest' as synonym for 'the own
    system' and 'moving' for 'remote'.

    This is a misunderstanding on you side. Einstein didn't wrote
    anything suggesting your interpretation.


    Sure, but I have not written, that Einstein said so, but that my usual
    setting would be this way.

    I usually 'halt' the observer and declare the observer to be at rest.

    This is just an arbitrary choice, but a practical one.

    You could also say, the observer would move with multiples of c, if
    you prefer that. But such a setting isn't very useful.


    Therefore my standard setiing setting is: the observer doesn't move
    and everything else does.

    Einstein on the other hand used 'at rest' numerous time, but didn't
    say, in respect to what the system K was at rest.

    I personally didn't like that and used to say: the observer does not
    move in respect to himself.

    That's why the observer is at rest. But that is just an arbitrary
    choice which could be made otherwise.

    Why do you think that your "standard setting" is relevant to
    Einstein's definition of simultaneity?

    Sure.

    But I use this setting, anyhow.>

    Why have you not responded to the following?
    If it is something you do not understand, ask.



    Einstein's _only_ point was to define simultaneity,
    it was not to show how you can make two asynchronous clocks
    synchronous.


    No, because Einstein wrote about a method, which included clocks.

    But clocks are technical devices and are subject to human interactions.

    Time in contrast is not supposed to be affected by humans or clocks.

    So, Einstein's definition does not define time, but describes a
    technical method, which ultimatively synchronizes remote clocks.

    (And as an enignieer I know a few things about technical procedures.)

    If Einstein actually wanted to define simultineity he should have use a hypothetical signal, which connects without delay.

    That such a signal does not exist in reality does not hinder to define
    it and use it in a definition.

    The discrepancy to the real world and the real signal by light or radio
    waves could be put in 'by hand' and by calculating the delay of light to travgel between two points and adding the result to the timing signals.


    Einstein's method to see if clocks are synchronous,
    is a thought experiment.

    Really? Could he do that?

    A thought experiment is to see the logical consequences of a set
    of assumptions.
    A thought experiment does not prove that the assumptions are true.

    Well, yes.

    This is similar to a proof in mathematics.

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "If at the point A of space there is a clock, an observer
    |-a at A can determine the time values of events in the immediate
    |-a proximity of A by finding the positions of the hands which
    |-a are simultaneous with these events.
    |-a If there is at the point B of space another clock in all
    |-a respects resembling the one at A, it is possible for an observer
    |-a at B to determine the time values of events in the immediate
    |-a neighbourhood of B."

    With what kind of precession do you think it in 1905 was possible
    to "determine the time values of events" "by finding the positions
    of the hands"? And the observer at B had to find the position of
    the hands when he saw the ray hit the mirror.

    The mirror was supposed to stand near the clock at point B, while the
    observer at A sends out a beam of light at some known point in time.

    So, the observer at B (also named 'B') watches his mirror and tries to
    catch that moment, when a signal from A arrives, looks immediatly at his
    watch and tries to remember, where the hands were.

    But what Einstein didn't write was also important:

    he had to write down the read out of his clock and mail it to A.


    Ok, actually that method was the other way round:

    A reads out his clock at the start of the ray, writes that value down

    next A reads the own clock, once the ray returns and writes that value down.

    Then this paper is sent as a letter (by US-postal service or similar) to
    the remote station (the Moon for instance).

    There the observer at B receives the letter, calculates the delay, adds
    that delay to the start time and turns the own clock to the result.


    At the very best the precision would be in the order of second,
    which is many order of magnitudes more than the transit time.
    (Einstein never imagined that point B should be beyond the Moon.)

    Well, but I could.

    So lets assume 'Alpha Centaury'.


    the only problem:

    Us postal has no office there.

    defines simultaneity, and does not explain how to synchronise
    asynchronous clocks.

    There the observer at B receives the letter, calculates the delay, adds
    that delay to the start time and turns the own clock to the result.

    Why could Einstein write:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks are synchronous if
    tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB" ?

    Was it because:

    1. A human observer at A had, by observing the hands of his clock,
    measured that the clock showed tA when the ray was sent,
    and that the clock showed t'A when he saw the reflected ray.
    And a human observer at B had, by observing the hands of his clock,
    measured that his clock showed tB when he saw the ray from A.
    And when the measurements were done, the human observer at A
    sent tA and t'A to the human observer at B who could calculate
    if (tB reA tA) = (trC#A reA tB) = d/c, in which case the two clocks
    were synchronous.

    2. Einstein demonstrated that if tA, t'A and tB were measured
    with infinite precision, and the transit time is exactly d/c by
    definition, then it logically follows that if (tBreAtA) = (trC#AreAtB)
    then tB = (tA + d/c) and trC#A = (tB + d/c) which means that both
    clocks simultaneously show the same.

    Of course you know that none of the measurements described in
    1. were made.

    Einstein statement:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks are synchronous if
    tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB"
    is a logical consequence of the postulates of SR
    and that the speed of light is isotropic.

    It is not a result of real measurements.

    You can see this explained in better detail below:
    (Why did you snip it? Didn't you understand it?)

    -----------------------------

    We start with this quote:

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | we establish
    | by definition that the rCLtimerCY required by light to travel
    | from A to B equals the rCLtimerCY it requires to travel from
    | B to A."

    Note that this statement imply that A and B are stationary
    relative to each other.

    This definition together with the two postulates of SR means:
    The speed of light is isotropic c by definition.

    This is a definition of simultaneity, se below.

    That two clocks are synchronous means that they
    simultaneously show the same.

    Now Einstein made the following _thought experiment_:

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "Let a ray of light start at the rCLA timerCY tA from A towards B,
    | let it at the rCLB timerCY tB be reflected at B in the direction
    | of A, and arrive again at A at the rCLA timerCY trC#A."

    tA is the time shown by the clock at A when the ray leave A.
    tB is the time shown by the clock at B when the ray hits B.
    t'A is the time shown by the clock at A when the reflected
    ray hits A.

    In a thought experiment measurements can be made with
    infinite precision, and we can sit at our desks and analyse it.

    The transit time is d/c where d is the distance between A and B.
    Let clock B be F ahead of clock A, where F is between 0 and
    a long time.

    We then have: tB = tA + d/c + F
    and: t'A = tB + d/c - F

    so: (tB - tA) = d/c + F
    (t'A - tB) = d/c - F

    If (tB - tA) = (t'A - tB) then (d/c + F) = (d/c - F),
    which is true only if F = 0,
    the clocks simultaneously show the same.

    This means:

    TB = (TA + d/c)
    When clock B shows TB clock A simultaneously
    shows (TA + d/c), which is the same.

    t'A = (tB + d/c)
    When clock A shows t'A clock B simultaneously
    shows (tB + d/c), which is the same.


    Thus:
    In accordance with definition the two clocks are synchronous if
    tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB.

    This is a logical consequence of the postulates of SR
    and that the speed of light is isotropic.

    Einstein's definition of simultaneity is mathematically
    consistent.

    This doesn't say anything about whether or not SR's
    predictions are in accordance with measurements.
    Only real experiments can do that.

    The theory of relativity taught by people today is particularly stupid and arrogant.
    I'm not saying it's stupid; I'm saying that taught as it is, it's stupid. What's both terrible and wonderful about human history is that it doesn't
    even require an experiment to prove it (which is what Alain Aspect does,
    if we understand what he's doing).

    But we can demonstrate this very easily by considering a Langevin traveler
    in apparent speeds and placing ourselves at the level of a stargazer.

    It is absolutely clear and obvious that in the most classic example, its proper return time, for example, will be 9 years.

    We then consider the idea that for nine years, he sees the Earth
    approaching him at a speed of 4 c through his telescope (no one has ever
    been able to contradict him, it's so obvious).

    SO the Earth moves 36 ly during this time.

    This is incredibly logical.

    Everything else is just misunderstanding and human madness tinged with incredible arrogance towards those who say simple and verifiable things.

    This means that everything the good Dr. Hachel has been saying for 40
    years about the geometry of space-time is true.

    I repeat, the rest is not a problem of science, it's a problem of
    generalized human arrogance.

    "There is absolutely no way this man can rule over us."

    The Jewish priests hated Jesus because he surpassed them.

    Always, always, always, the same problem recurs.

    "No one has ever spoken like this man, who can prove he's teaching
    nonsense?"

    The phenomenon recurs again.

    As soon as you make things clear and obvious,
    you've reached the establishment.

    It's as simple as that, and a seven-year-old can understand it.

    No, because Einstein wrote about a method, which included clocks.

    This is irrelevant to Einstein's definition of simultaneity-


    We are talking about: -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity

    It is an indisputable fact that Einstein in -o1 of his paper
    defines simultaneity, and does not explain how to synchronise
    asynchronous clocks.



    Einstein's method to see if clocks are synchronous,
    is a thought experiment.

    Really? Could he do that?

    A thought experiment is to see the logical consequences of a set
    of assumptions.
    A thought experiment does not prove that the assumptions are true.

    Well, yes.

    This is similar to a proof in mathematics.

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity
    -------------------------------------------
    | "If at the point A of space there is a clock, an observer
    |-a at A can determine the time values of events in the immediate
    |-a proximity of A by finding the positions of the hands which
    |-a are simultaneous with these events.
    |-a If there is at the point B of space another clock in all
    |-a respects resembling the one at A, it is possible for an observer
    |-a at B to determine the time values of events in the immediate
    |-a neighbourhood of B."

    With what kind of precession do you think it in 1905 was possible
    to "determine the time values of events" "by finding the positions
    of the hands"? And the observer at B had to find the position of
    the hands when he saw the ray hit the mirror.

    The mirror was supposed to stand near the clock at point B, while the
    observer at A sends out a beam of light at some known point in time.

    So, the observer at B (also named 'B') watches his mirror and tries to
    catch that moment, when a signal from A arrives, looks immediatly at his >>> watch and tries to remember, where the hands were.

    But what Einstein didn't write was also important:

    he had to write down the read out of his clock and mail it to A.

    Ok, actually that method was the other way round:

    A reads out his clock at the start of the ray, writes that value down

    next A reads the own clock, once the ray returns and writes that value
    down.

    Then this paper is sent as a letter (by US-postal service or similar) to >>> the remote station (the Moon for instance).

    There the observer at B receives the letter, calculates the delay, adds >>> that delay to the start time and turns the own clock to the result.

    Why could Einstein write:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks are synchronous if
    tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB" ?

    Was it because:

    1. A human observer at A had, by observing the hands of his clock,
    measured that the clock showed tA when the ray was sent,
    and that the clock showed t'A when he saw the reflected ray.
    And a human observer at B had, by observing the hands of his clock,
    measured that his clock showed tB when he saw the ray from A.
    And when the measurements were done, the human observer at A
    sent tA and t'A to the human observer at B who could calculate
    if (tB reA tA) = (trC#A reA tB) = d/c, in which case the two clocks
    were synchronous.

    2. Einstein demonstrated that if tA, t'A and tB were measured
    with infinite precision, and the transit time is exactly d/c by
    definition, then it logically follows that if (tBreAtA) = (trC#AreAtB) >> then tB = (tA + d/c) and trC#A = (tB + d/c) which means that both
    clocks simultaneously show the same.

    Of course you know that none of the measurements described in
    1. were made.

    Einstein statement:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks are synchronous if
    tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB"
    is a logical consequence of the postulates of SR
    and that the speed of light is isotropic.

    It is not a result of real measurements.

    You can see this explained in better detail below:
    (Why did you snip it? Didn't you understand it?)

    -----------------------------

    We start with this quote:

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity
    -------------------------------------------
    | we establish
    | by definition that the rCLtimerCY required by light to travel
    | from A to B equals the rCLtimerCY it requires to travel from
    | B to A."

    Note that this statement imply that A and B are stationary
    relative to each other.

    This definition together with the two postulates of SR means:
    The speed of light is isotropic c by definition.

    This is a definition of simultaneity, se below.

    That two clocks are synchronous means that they
    simultaneously show the same.

    Now Einstein made the following _thought experiment_:

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity
    -------------------------------------------
    | "Let a ray of light start at the rCLA timerCY tA from A towards B,
    | let it at the rCLB timerCY tB be reflected at B in the direction
    | of A, and arrive again at A at the rCLA timerCY trC#A."

    tA is the time shown by the clock at A when the ray leave A.
    tB is the time shown by the clock at B when the ray hits B.
    t'A is the time shown by the clock at A when the reflected
    ray hits A.

    In a thought experiment measurements can be made with
    infinite precision, and we can sit at our desks and analyse it.

    The transit time is d/c where d is the distance between A and B.
    Let clock B be F ahead of clock A, where F is between 0 and
    a long time.

    We then have: tB = tA + d/c + F
    and: t'A = tB + d/c - F

    so: (tB - tA) = d/c + F
    (t'A - tB) = d/c - F

    If (tB - tA) = (t'A - tB) then (d/c + F) = (d/c - F),
    which is true only if F = 0,
    the clocks simultaneously show the same.

    This means:

    TB = (TA + d/c)
    When clock B shows TB clock A simultaneously
    shows (TA + d/c), which is the same.

    t'A = (tB + d/c)
    When clock A shows t'A clock B simultaneously
    shows (tB + d/c), which is the same.


    Thus:
    In accordance with definition the two clocks are synchronous if
    tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB.

    This is a logical consequence of the postulates of SR
    and that the speed of light is isotropic.

    Einstein's definition of simultaneity is mathematically
    consistent.

    This doesn't say anything about whether or not SR's
    predictions are in accordance with measurements.
    Only real experiments can do that.

    The theory of relativity taught by people today is particularly stupid and arrogant.
    I'm not saying it's stupid; I'm saying that taught as it is, it's stupid. What's both terrible and wonderful about human history is that it doesn't even
    require an experiment to prove it (which is what Alain Aspect does, if we understand what he's doing).

    But we can demonstrate this very easily by considering a Langevin traveler in
    apparent speeds and placing ourselves at the level of a stargazer.

    It is absolutely clear and obvious that in the most classic example, its proper
    return time, for example, will be 9 years.

    We then consider the idea that for nine years, he sees the Earth approaching him
    at a speed of 4 c through his telescope (no one has ever been able to contradict
    him, it's so obvious).

    SO the Earth moves 36 ly during this time.

    This is incredibly logical.

    Everything else is just misunderstanding and human madness tinged with incredible arrogance towards those who say simple and verifiable things.

    This means that everything the good Dr. Hachel has been saying for 40 years about the geometry of space-time is true.

    I repeat, the rest is not a problem of science, it's a problem of generalized
    human arrogance.

    "There is absolutely no way this man can rule over us."

    The Jewish priests hated Jesus because he surpassed them.

    Always, always, always, the same problem recurs.

    "No one has ever spoken like this man, who can prove he's teaching nonsense?"

    The phenomenon recurs again.

    As soon as you make things clear and obvious,
    you've reached the establishment.

    It's as simple as that, and a seven-year-old can understand it.

    Why could Einstein write:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks are synchronous if
    -a-a-a-a-a-a tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB" ?

    Was it because:

    1. A human observer at A had, by observing the hands of his clock,
    -a-a-a measured that the clock showed tA when the ray was sent,
    -a-a-a and that the clock showed t'A when he saw the reflected ray.

    Note that this statement imply that A and B are stationary
    relative to each other.

    This definition together with the two postulates of SR means:
    -a-a-a-a-a-a The speed of light is isotropic c by definition.

    This is a definition of simultaneity, se below.

    That two clocks are synchronous means that they
    simultaneously show the same.

    Now Einstein made the following _thought experiment_:

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity
    -------------------------------------------
    | "Let a ray of light start at the rCLA timerCY tA from A towards B,
    | let it at the rCLB timerCY tB be reflected at B in the direction

    tA is the time shown by the clock at A when the ray leave A.
    tB is the time shown by the clock at B when the ray hits B.
    t'A is the time shown by the clock at A when the reflected
    -a-a-a-a ray hits A.

    In a thought experiment measurements can be made with
    infinite precision, and we can sit at our desks and analyse it.

    The transit time is d/c where d is the distance between A and B.
    Let clock B be F ahead of clock A, where F is between 0 and
    a long time.

    We then have: tB-a = tA + d/c + F
    and:-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a t'A = tB + d/c - F

    so:-a (tB - tA)-a = d/c + F
    -a-a-a-a-a (t'A - tB) = d/c - F

    If (tB - tA) = (t'A - tB)-a then (d/c + F) = (d/c - F),
    which is true only if F = 0,
    the clocks simultaneously show the same.

    This means:

    -a-a-a TB = (TA + d/c)
    -a When clock B shows TB clock A simultaneously
    -a shows (TA + d/c), which is the same.

    -a-a-a t'A = (tB + d/c)
    -a When clock A shows t'A clock B simultaneously
    -a shows (tB + d/c), which is the same.


    Thus:
    -a In accordance with definition the two clocks are synchronous if
    -a-a-a-a-a-a tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB.

    This is a logical consequence of the postulates of SR

    Then this paper is sent as a letter (by US-postal service or similar)
    to the remote station (the Moon for instance).

    There the observer at B receives the letter, calculates the delay,
    adds that delay to the start time and turns the own clock to the result.

    Why could Einstein write:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks are synchronous if
    -a-a-a-a-a tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB" ?

    Was it because:

    1. A human observer at A had, by observing the hands of his clock,
    -a-a measured that the clock showed tA when the ray was sent,
    -a-a and that the clock showed t'A when he saw the reflected ray.
    -a-a And a human observer at B had, by observing the hands of his clock,
    -a-a measured that his clock showed tB when he saw the ray from A.
    -a-a And when the measurements were done, the human observer at A
    -a-a sent tA and t'A to the human observer at B who could calculate
    -a-a if (tB reA tA) = (trC#A reA tB) = d/c, in which case the two clocks
    -a-a were synchronous.

    Einstein had not mentioned this method. This method was Python's interpretation of Einstein's text.

    In fact no real method was presented by Einstein, which eventually could synchronizes remote clocks.

    That was, of course, the case, because Einstein wasn't talking about
    clocks but about time.

    But Einstein's method was wrong, because it could actually be used to
    set the remote clock to a time, which wasn't the local time of the
    remote location.

    So, we get synchronized clocks by Einstein's method (with Python's extensions), which unfortunately hasn't anything to do with time.


    2. Einstein demonstrated that if tA, t'A and tB were measured
    -a-a with infinite precision, and the transit time is exactly d/c by
    -a-a definition, then it logically follows that if (tBreAtA) = (trC#AreAtB)
    -a-a then-a tB = (tA + d/c) and trC#A = (tB + d/c) which means that both
    -a-a clocks simultaneously show the same.

    Of course you know that none of the measurements described in
    1. were made.

    Einstein statement:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks are synchronous if
    -a-a-a-a-a tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB"
    is a logical consequence of the postulates of SR
    and that the speed of light is isotropic.


    This was the hypothesis which Einstein tried to prove. Therefore it
    couldn't be used as prerequisite.


    It is not a result of real measurements.

    You can see this explained in better detail below:
    (Why did you snip it? Didn't you understand it?)

    -----------------------------

    We start with this quote:

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    |-a we establish
    |-a by definition that the rCLtimerCY required by light to travel
    |-a from A to B equals the rCLtimerCY it requires to travel from
    |-a B to A."

    Note that this statement imply that A and B are stationary
    relative to each other.

    This definition together with the two postulates of SR means:
    -a-a-a-a-a The speed of light is isotropic c by definition.

    This is a definition of simultaneity, se below.

    No, because you made an assumption, which now must be applied to other systems, too:

    Note that this statement imply that A and B are stationary
    relative to each other.

    If you give it up and make A and/or B moving, then you get a problem.
    That two clocks are synchronous means that they
    simultaneously show the same.

    Sure, but is a 'circular definition', because 'synchronous' and
    'simultaneous' are more or less the same thing.

    So, in my opinion all variables with a 't' are meant as 'A-time' and
    based on system K.

    You opinion is wrong.

    More precisely: t is "A-time" if it is labeling an event at the position
    of clock A. Otherwise it is "B-time" (clock B being at the position of
    this event). These two values are assumed to be taken from clocks at B
    synchronized with A according to the definition in paragraph I.1.

    You forgot that 'snail mail' was required for your method in -o1.

    This is a non-problem. There are many ways to transmit an information from
    A to B and the other wy around.

    But how would you do that, if system B is receding at significant pace?

    Receding from what? A and B are in relative rest.

    Same for "tau" btw, in the "moving system" you can set up a network of
    clocks synchronized the same way as in the "stationary system" :

    No: the method from -o1 required, that A and B do not move in respect to each other.

    There is no problem to set up a set of clocks in mutual rest in the
    "moving system". Tau is then defined the same way t in in the "stationary system".

    If they do, a different definition for synchronicity would be necessary:

    you cannot use the equation from -o 1:
    t_B - t_A = t'_A - t_B

    because that is only valid if A and B do not move.

    Well. Then do not move relatively to each other.

    My proposal was:

    [irrelevance]

    We are not talking about your ideas, we are talking about Einstein actual paper.

    The problem was: you need to know the delay and Einstein made no
    attempts to figure that out.

    t'A - tB, tB - tA are DELAYS as long as they are equal.

    "Further, let the time t of the stationary system be determined for all
    points thereof at which there are clocks by means of light signals in
    the manner indicated in -o 1; similarly let the time $\tau$ of the moving >> system be determined for all points of the moving system at which there
    are clocks at rest relatively to that system by applying the method,
    given in -o 1, of light signals between the points at which the latter
    clocks are located."

    See? tau is defined exactly the same way t is, but in another "system"
    i.e. "frame of reference".

    Sure, but Einstein didn't use the term 'frame of reference' in that article.

    It doesn't matter. What he called "system" is exactly what is called now "frame of reference".

    EXACTLY.

    Instead he used only coordinate systems and time measures, which are associated with these coordinate systems.

    Which is 100% what a reference frame is : a system allowing to associate
    space and time coordinates to events.

    BUT: the time t was NOT valid uniformly throughout its coordinate
    system, but only in the vicinity of the clock.

    Not after, under his assumptions, the clocks are synchronized.

    This means: Einstein gave the impression, as if he wanted top make time dependent of the location.

    Definitely not. This is something you made up.

    He started from a purely local definition and build a way to consistently extend this definition to a whole frame of reference.

    This in turn would only make sense, if he didn't wanted to take the
    delay into consideration.

    Sigh. He did. The point of delay is the HEART of his synchronization
    checking method.

    Thomas you are a fractal of misunderstandings, inability to read, and
    likely utter stubborn dishonesty.

    Well, actually the author had to tell his story and the reader had to
    read.

    If the author writes stories, which you could interpret in many
    different ways, than the text has to be understood by the least likely
    interpretation, because ambiguity goes against the author.

    Einstein's paper left no room for interpretation. You introduced them
    because you misunderstood 99% of what he wrote.
    tau is a time coordinate in another frame of reference, definitely
    not "B-time".

    Sure: A has a time called 'A-time' and B a time called 'B-time'
    Since 'A-time' is not equal to 'B-time'

    What could it means for two values that are constantly changing (a
    number displayed by a clock !) to be "equal" or "not equal" ?

    A and B belong to two different frames of reference.

    No. They are clocks mutually at rest, which is a definition of devices
    in a single frame of reference.

    Moreover everything belong to ALL frames of reference. Everything than
    happens, happens for anyone.

    No, since you are confusing 'coordinate system' and 'frame of reference'.

    They are the SAME thing. A coordinate system includes space AND time.

    If Einstein actually wanted to define simultineity he should have use

    That such a signal does not exist in reality does not hinder to

    The discrepancy to the real world-a and the real signal by light or
    radio waves could be put in 'by hand' and by calculating the delay of
    light to travgel between two points and adding the result to the
    timing signals.


    This is irrelevant to Einstein's definition of simultaneity-


    We are talking about: -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity

    It is an indisputable fact that Einstein in-a -o1 of his paper
    defines simultaneity, and does not explain how to synchronise
    asynchronous clocks.


    Einstein wrote somehow 'time is what clocks say'.

    Indeed.
    In physics 'time' must be measurable to have any meaning.
    The instrument used for measuring 'time' is called a 'clock'.
    So 'time' is what we measure with 'clocks'.


    This would include clock setting into synchronization.

    The definition of 'synchronous' is that two clocks
    are synchronous if they simultaneously show the same.

    This definition is meaningless unless 'simultaneity'
    is defined.

    Thus: -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity


    Actually Einstein meant clocks and was talking about clock
    synchronization, since it makes no sense to try to adjust some parts of nature.

    Einstein had to define 'simultaneity' in order to define
    what it meant that clocks are 'synchronous'.



    Einstein's method to see if clocks are synchronous,
    is a thought experiment.

    Really? Could he do that?

    Yes.
    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | Thus with the help of certain imaginary physical experiments
    | we have settled what is to be understood by synchronous
    | stationary clocks located at different places, and have
    | evidently obtained a definition of rCLsimultaneous,rCY or
    | rCLsynchronous,rCY and of rCLtime.rCY

    "imaginary physical experiments" is the same as "thought experiments".


    A thought experiment is to see the logical consequences of a set
    of assumptions.
    A thought experiment does not prove that the assumptions are true.

    Well, yes.

    This is similar to a proof in mathematics.

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity
    -------------------------------------------
    | "If at the point A of space there is a clock, an observer
    |-a at A can determine the time values of events in the immediate
    |-a proximity of A by finding the positions of the hands which
    |-a are simultaneous with these events.
    |-a If there is at the point B of space another clock in all
    |-a respects resembling the one at A, it is possible for an observer
    |-a at B to determine the time values of events in the immediate
    |-a neighbourhood of B."

    With what kind of precession do you think it in 1905 was possible
    to "determine the time values of events" "by finding the positions
    of the hands"? And the observer at B had to find the position of
    the hands when he saw the ray hit the mirror.

    The mirror was supposed to stand near the clock at point B, while the
    observer at A sends out a beam of light at some known point in time.

    So, the observer at B (also named 'B') watches his mirror and tries
    to catch that moment, when a signal from A arrives, looks immediatly
    at his watch and tries to remember, where the hands were.

    But what Einstein didn't write was also important:

    he had to write down the read out of his clock and mail it to A.

    Ok, actually that method was the other way round:

    A reads out his clock at the start of the ray, writes that value down

    next A reads the own clock, once the ray returns and writes that
    value down.

    Then this paper is sent as a letter (by US-postal service or similar)
    to the remote station (the Moon for instance).

    There the observer at B receives the letter, calculates the delay,
    adds that delay to the start time and turns the own clock to the result.

    Why could Einstein write:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks are synchronous if
    -a-a-a-a-a-a tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB" ?

    Was it because:

    1. A human observer at A had, by observing the hands of his clock,
    -a-a-a measured that the clock showed tA when the ray was sent,
    -a-a-a and that the clock showed t'A when he saw the reflected ray.
    -a-a-a And a human observer at B had, by observing the hands of his clock, >> -a-a-a measured that his clock showed tB when he saw the ray from A.
    -a-a-a And when the measurements were done, the human observer at A
    -a-a-a sent tA and t'A to the human observer at B who could calculate
    -a-a-a if (tB reA tA) = (trC#A reA tB) = d/c, in which case the two clocks >> -a-a-a were synchronous.

    Einstein had not mentioned this method.

    Which was my very point.
    No human observer had measured anything.

    This method was Python's interpretation of Einstein's text.

    No, Python's and my method to synchronise clocks
    according to Einstein's definition of simultaneity
    was only possible with atomic clocks, computers and
    light detectors.

    But this is irrelevant to the fact that nobody has
    measured anything as described in 1.


    In fact no real method was presented by Einstein, which eventually could synchronizes remote clocks.

    Right.


    That was, of course, the case, because Einstein wasn't talking about
    clocks but about time.

    That was, of course, because Einstein never talked about
    synchronising remote clocks.


    But Einstein's method was wrong, because it could actually be used to
    set the remote clock to a time, which wasn't the local time of the
    remote location.

    So the method for synchronising remote clocks which Einstein
    never talked about was wrong? :-D
    Nobody but you have talked about synchronising 'remote clocks'.

    So, we get synchronized clocks by Einstein's method (with Python's extensions), which unfortunately hasn't anything to do with time.

    It is a fact that the following is what Einstein did:


    2. Einstein demonstrated that if tA, t'A and tB were measured
    -a-a-a with infinite precision, and the transit time is exactly d/c by
    -a-a-a definition, then it logically follows that if (tBreAtA) = (trC#AreAtB)
    -a-a-a then-a tB = (tA + d/c) and trC#A = (tB + d/c) which means that both >> -a-a-a clocks simultaneously show the same.

    Of course you know that none of the measurements described in
    1. were made.

    Einstein statement:
    "In accordance with definition the two clocks are synchronous if
    -a-a-a-a-a-a tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB"
    is a logical consequence of the postulates of SR
    and that the speed of light is isotropic.


    This was the hypothesis which Einstein tried to prove. Therefore it
    couldn't be used as prerequisite.


    No, it was no hypothesis.
    As stated above it was a logical conclusion from
    the postulates of SR and that the speed of light
    is isotropic by definition.

    It is not a result of real measurements.

    You can see this explained in better detail below:
    (Why did you snip it? Didn't you understand it?)

    -----------------------------

    We start with this quote:

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity
    -------------------------------------------
    |-a we establish
    |-a by definition that the rCLtimerCY required by light to travel
    |-a from A to B equals the rCLtimerCY it requires to travel from
    |-a B to A."

    Note that this statement imply that A and B are stationary
    relative to each other.

    This definition together with the two postulates of SR means:
    -a-a-a-a-a-a The speed of light is isotropic c by definition.

    This is a definition of simultaneity, se below.

    That two clocks are synchronous means that they
    simultaneously show the same.

    Sure, but is a 'circular definition', because 'synchronous' and 'simultaneous' are more or less the same thing.

    One centimetre is per definition one hundredth part of a metre.

    Is this a 'circular definition' because 'one centimetre' and
    'one hundredth part of a metre' are more or less the same thing?

    Why did you snip the rest?
    Didn't you understand it?

    Please read it, and if you find a logical error in
    Einst5ein's derivation, please point it out.

    -----------------------------------

    In SR the speed of light is isotropic c by definition.

    This is a definition of simultaneity, se below.

    That two clocks are synchronous means that they
    simultaneously show the same.

    Now Einstein made the following _thought experiment_:
    (or 'imaginary physical experiment')

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "Let a ray of light start at the rCLA timerCY tA from A towards B,
    | let it at the rCLB timerCY tB be reflected at B in the direction
    | of A, and arrive again at A at the rCLA timerCY trC#A."

    tA is the time shown by the clock at A when the ray leave A.
    tB is the time shown by the clock at B when the ray hits B.
    t'A is the time shown by the clock at A when the reflected
    ray hits A.

    In a thought experiment measurements can be made with
    infinite precision, and we can sit at our desks and analyse it.

    The transit time is d/c where d is the distance between A and B.
    Let clock B be F ahead of clock A, where F is between 0 and
    a long time.

    We then have: tB = tA + d/c + F
    and: t'A = tB + d/c - F

    so: (tB - tA) = d/c + F
    (t'A - tB) = d/c - F

    If (tB - tA) = (t'A - tB) then (d/c + F) = (d/c - F),
    which is true only if F = 0,
    the clocks simultaneously show the same.

    This means:

    TB = (TA + d/c)
    When clock B shows TB clock A simultaneously
    shows (TA + d/c), which is the same.

    t'A = (tB + d/c)
    When clock A shows t'A clock B simultaneously
    shows (tB + d/c), which is the same.


    Thus:
    In accordance with definition the two clocks are synchronous if
    tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB.

    This is a logical consequence of the postulates of SR
    and that the speed of light is isotropic.

    Einstein's definition of simultaneity is mathematically
    consistent.

    This doesn't say anything about whether or not SR's
    predictions are in accordance with measurements.
    Only real experiments can do that.

    So 'time' is what we measure with 'clocks'.


    But a clock does not measure 'time'.

    No, because Einstein wrote about a method, which included clocks.

    So, Einstein's definition does not define time, but describes a

    (And as an enignieer I know a few things about technical procedures.)

    If Einstein actually wanted to define simultineity he should have
    use a hypothetical signal, which connects without delay.

    That such a signal does not exist in reality does not hinder to
    define it and use it in a definition.

    The discrepancy to the real world-a and the real signal by light or
    radio waves could be put in 'by hand' and by calculating the delay
    of light to travgel between two points and adding the result to the
    timing signals.


    This is irrelevant to Einstein's definition of simultaneity-


    We are talking about: -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity

    It is an indisputable fact that Einstein in-a -o1 of his paper
    defines simultaneity, and does not explain how to synchronise
    asynchronous clocks.


    Einstein wrote somehow 'time is what clocks say'.

    Indeed.
    In physics 'time' must be measurable to have any meaning.
    The instrument used for measuring 'time' is called a 'clock'.

    Physics never understood what a clock is

    So, in my opinion all variables with a 't' are meant as 'A-time'
    and based on system K.

    You opinion is wrong.

    More precisely: t is "A-time" if it is labeling an event at the
    position of clock A. Otherwise it is "B-time" (clock B being at the
    position of this event). These two values are assumed to be taken
    from clocks at B synchronized with A according to the definition in
    paragraph I.1.

    You forgot that 'snail mail' was required for your method in -o1.

    This is a non-problem. There are many ways to transmit an information
    from A to B and the other wy around.

    But how would you do that, if system B is receding at significant pace?

    Receding from what? A and B are in relative rest.

    A and B were used in different ways in Einstein's text.

    That's why a setting in one chapter is not always valid in others.

    Actually Einstein had next to never defined his variables properly but
    gave some hints and requested the reader to find out himself, what he eventually had in mind.

    So, you fell into that trap, too, and assumed, that one setting applies
    in other chapters.

    But that ain't the case and you need to check very carefully, what was
    meant in a certain topic with a certain symbol like e.g. 'A'.

    Btw: Einstein had used that letter quite often in 'On the
    electrodynamics of moving bodies', but in eight different ways.

    Among those uses of the letter 'A' were also moving ones.


    Same for "tau" btw, in the "moving system" you can set up a network
    of clocks synchronized the same way as in the "stationary system" :

    No: the method from -o1 required, that A and B do not move in respect
    to each other.

    There is no problem to set up a set of clocks in mutual rest in the
    "moving system". Tau is then defined the same way t in in the
    "stationary system".


    'tau' stems from the moving system k, hence was not meant as 'stationary time'.

    If they do, a different definition for synchronicity would be necessary:

    you cannot use the equation from -o 1:
    t_B - t_A = t'_A - t_B

    because that is only valid if A and B do not move.

    Well. Then do not move relatively to each other.

    Well, yes.

    But we're talking about SRT, which is mainly about moving frames of
    reference.

    My problem was, that I thought about 'local time' and therefore
    wanted 'A-time' to be named 't' and 'B-time' values 'tau'.

    Why "what you want" would be of any interest when it comes to
    analyze Einstein's paper?

    Well, actually the author had to tell his story and the reader had
    to read.

    If the author writes stories, which you could interpret in many
    different ways, than the text has to be understood by the least
    likely interpretation, because ambiguity goes against the author.

    Einstein's paper left no room for interpretation. You introduced them
    because you misunderstood 99% of what he wrote.
    tau is a time coordinate in another frame of reference, definitely
    not "B-time".

    Sure: A has a time called 'A-time' and B a time called 'B-time'
    Since 'A-time' is not equal to 'B-time'

    What could it means for two values that are constantly changing (a
    number displayed by a clock !) to be "equal" or "not equal" ?

    A and B belong to two different frames of reference.

    No. They are clocks mutually at rest, which is a definition of
    devices in a single frame of reference.

    Moreover everything belong to ALL frames of reference. Everything
    than happens, happens for anyone.

    No, since you are confusing 'coordinate system' and 'frame of reference'.

    They are the SAME thing. A coordinate system includes space AND time.

    No!

    Especially the Euclidean system (which Einstein mentioned) is meant to
    be 'timeless'.

    That why clocks measure time, but time does not depend on clocks.

    That is like e.g. voltage, which is a phenomenon that should also have existed, if voltmeters were not yet invented.

    Or distance, for instance, did also exist, before the meter was even
    defined (or any other unit).

    What physicists think or require isn't important for nature neither.

    No, it is not. A clock is a clock, a
    stopwatch is a stopwatch, as said - a
    relativistic idiot can't really distinguish.
    They're similar a bit, true.

    Yes, it is. Timestamps are from outside

    That why clocks measure time, but time does not depend on clocks.

    Does that mean that you can't measure "time" with your wristwatch?


    That is like e.g. voltage, which is a phenomenon that should also have existed, if voltmeters were not yet invented.

    What physicists think or require isn't important for nature neither. (otherwise nature would constantly puke.)


    Could it be that all your statements above are irrelevant
    to the fact that you measure "time" with your wristwatch?



    Why did you snip the rest?
    Didn't you understand it?

    Am I to understand that you are unable to read and understand it?

    Please read it, and if you find a logical error in
    Einst5ein's derivation, please point it out.

    -----------------------------------

    In SR the speed of light is isotropic c by definition.

    This is a definition of simultaneity, se below.

    That two clocks are synchronous means that they
    simultaneously show the same.

    Einstein made 'an imaginary physical experiment':
    (a _thought experiment_)

    quote from -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity -------------------------------------------
    | "Let a ray of light start at the rCLA timerCY tA from A towards B,
    | let it at the rCLB timerCY tB be reflected at B in the direction
    | of A, and arrive again at A at the rCLA timerCY trC#A."

    tA is the time shown by the clock at A when the ray leave A.
    tB is the time shown by the clock at B when the ray hits B.
    t'A is the time shown by the clock at A when the reflected
    ray hits A.

    In a thought experiment measurements can be made with
    infinite precision, and we can sit at our desks and analyse it.

    The transit time is d/c where d is the distance between A and B.
    Let clock B be F ahead of clock A, where F is between 0 and
    a long time.

    We then have: tB = tA + d/c + F
    and: t'A = tB + d/c - F

    so: (tB - tA) = d/c + F
    (t'A - tB) = d/c - F

    If (tB - tA) = (t'A - tB) then (d/c + F) = (d/c - F),
    which is true only if F = 0,
    the clocks simultaneously show the same.

    This means:

    TB = (TA + d/c)
    When clock B shows TB clock A simultaneously
    shows (TA + d/c), which is the same.

    t'A = (tB + d/c)
    When clock A shows t'A clock B simultaneously
    shows (tB + d/c), which is the same.


    Thus:
    In accordance with definition the two clocks are synchronous if
    tB reA tA = trC#A reA tB.

    This is a logical consequence of the postulates of SR
    and that the speed of light is isotropic.

    Einstein's definition of simultaneity is mathematically
    consistent.

    This doesn't say anything about whether or not SR's
    predictions are in accordance with measurements.
    Only real experiments can do that.

    Je ne connais pas la th|-orie de Maciej, je signale simplement que sa
    phrase :
    " Physics never understood what a clock is
    and was always mistaking it with a
    stopwatch."
    est tout |a fait justifi|-e.

    Les physiciens, excuse moi de te le dire, confondent chronom|?tre (qui
    mesure le temps qui passe, c'est |a dire la dur|-e) et heure l|-gale
    (c'est |a dire l'instant o|| a lieu un |-v|-nement).

    Dur|-e et instant, ce n'est pas la m|-me chose.

    De m|-me : chronotrop|<e r|-ciproque interne des montres, ce n'est pas
    "temps r|-ciproque mesur|- par les montres". Ce que tous les physiciens confondent encore en 2025.

    Je r|--explique encore :
    - par la position de l'observateur, l'instant des |-v|-nements varie.
    Un peu comme si une |-clipse avait lieu, et que l'on mesurait sa DATE,
    avec une horloge solaire.
    Le mec de Moscou affirme l'|-clipse totale |a telle heure. Le mec de
    Montr|-al affirme que l'|-clipse s'est produite bien avant (sur son cadran solaire).
    La position fait qu'il y a ANISOCHRONIE, et que la notion d'INSTANT est relative.

    - par la vitesse de l'observateur, la DUREE des |-v|-nements varie.
    L'effet devient alors du second degr|-. La chronotropie interne des
    montres est r|-ciproquement plus forte que celle de l'autre montre.
    Cet effet est compl|-tement absurde (paradoxe de Langevin) si justement,

    Why "what you want" would be of any interest when it comes to
    analyze Einstein's paper?

    Well, actually the author had to tell his story and the reader had
    to read.

    If the author writes stories, which you could interpret in many
    different ways, than the text has to be understood by the least
    likely interpretation, because ambiguity goes against the author.

    Einstein's paper left no room for interpretation. You introduced them >>>> because you misunderstood 99% of what he wrote.
    tau is a time coordinate in another frame of reference, definitely >>>>>> not "B-time".

    Sure: A has a time called 'A-time' and B a time called 'B-time'
    Since 'A-time' is not equal to 'B-time'

    What could it means for two values that are constantly changing (a
    number displayed by a clock !) to be "equal" or "not equal" ?

    A and B belong to two different frames of reference.

    No. They are clocks mutually at rest, which is a definition of
    devices in a single frame of reference.

    Moreover everything belong to ALL frames of reference. Everything
    than happens, happens for anyone.

    No, since you are confusing 'coordinate system' and 'frame of reference'. >>
    They are the SAME thing. A coordinate system includes space AND time.

    No!

    Especially the Euclidean system (which Einstein mentioned) is meant to
    be 'timeless'.

    Absolutely not. If you missed that point there is no question about why
    your "comments" are dumb.

    -2 Let us take a system of co-ordinates in which the equations of
    Newtonian mechanics hold good -+

    Newtonian mechanics involved both space AND time.

    Just a line above :

    -2 If a material point is at rest relatively to this system of
    co-ordinates, its position can be defined relatively thereto by the
    employment of rigid standards of measurement and the methods of Euclidean geometry, and can be expressed in Cartesian co-ordinates. -+

    Which is about the space coordinates, then :

    -2 If we wish to describe the motion of a material point, we give the
    values of its co-ordinates as functions of the time. -+

    See: TIME !!!

    Einstein explicitly wrote that what he consider a "system" involve both
    SPACE and TIME coordinates!!!

    Again: If you missed that point there is no question about why your
    "comments" are dumb.

    It's obvious that physicists confuse the two.
    A precise instant is not a duration. Instants are used to label events.
    The accident occurred at 3:15 a.m.
    Stopwatches primarily describe durations.
    He ran the 110-meter hurdles in 13.3 seconds.
    It's not quite the same thing. Here, we're qualifying an instant (even if
    it's in relation to something), there, we're qualifying a duration.

    But that's not the problem.

    The problem comes from the fact that once this is understood, physicists
    say that instants are absolute and durations are relative.

    They seem to think that the only thing that matters in relativity is
    speed, and that this affects durations. Their archaic way of thinking is
    then very simple. The faster you go, the slower time passes. They posit t'=t/sqrt(1-v-#/c-#), and don't see beyond this true, but ridiculous, equation.

    I explained, re-explained, and explained again that 20th-century
    physicists weren't all idiots, and that a majority (see the article 100 Physicists Against Einstein) had understood that things, put like that,
    were wrong.

    They called it the Langevin paradox, which is absolutely unanswerable.

    You can twist the system however you like, the dust on the carpet will constantly reappear, and you'll ultimately run into serious problems coherently describing a Langevin traveler in apparent phenomena.
    Everything descends into absurdity.

    The physicists' confusion between time (clock) and chronometer duration is obvious.

    They seem to understand the phenomenon of time dilation, but explain it
    very poorly. A better definition is: "reciprocal dilation of internal chronotropies."

    This is NOT measured time.
    But the way watches work, and here, it's clear that this confusion
    completely disorients all of humanity, incapable of following an
    explanation. True and consistent.

    The measured duration is not, in a properly understood relativity (perhaps
    in five centuries, a humanity of arrogant morons will finally make the difference), what the internal chronotropy of watches produces.

    This must be combined with the effects of universal anisochrony.

    The confusion between the internal mechanism of watches is NOT the
    duration measured by the watch, as stupid as that may seem if one doesn't understand relativity in the clarity and beauty of things.

    So, in summary, the internal mechanisms are relative to speed, but one
    must not overlook the effects of anisochrony induced by position.

    We thus move from the incredible stupidity of physicists who write like
    idiots t'=t/sqrt(1-v-#/c-#) to the genius of Hachel (whom morons call
    crank) who writes t'=t(1+cos-|.v/c)/sqrt(1-v-#/c-#).

    This is the real equation for the elasticity of time.

    It's a huge slap in the face.

    But that's not all, Hachel goes even further, and asserts that the
    phenomenon is identical for distances and lengths,
    and that, for example, D'=D.sqrt(1-v-#/c-#)/(1+cos-|.v/c)

    Here, it's clear that we're entering the realm of absolute intellectual horror, and that the physicist, who is just a man with a pair of balls, is going to lose his mind, so pissed off is he that we can propose something
    of absolute coherence, where even Poincar|-, Einstein, and Hawkins failed.
    All this is nothing but a vast problem of human behavior.

    This is utterly asinine. Timestamps and datetime data types are intervals,
    and if you look at the way they are used mainly in combination with
    interval data types. For instance they are substracted in order to get interval and check deadlines, they are added to intervals to get
    deadlines, etc.

    You have absolutely no clue in ANY of the subjects you're mentioning: engineering, physics, CS, information.

    I stand my point: you are NOT an engineer you just PRETEND to be one.

    samely as interval is not a very important data type.

    Said the (allegedly) "information engineer". PIFFLE.

    Scan the databases, poor stinker, compare the
    number of occurences of "interval" with the
    occurences of "timestamp" and "date" ... But
    you're just a-a mindless doggie - you don't
    compare, you just bark.

    This is utterly asinine. Timestamps and datetime data types are
    intervals

    This is utterly asinine. No they are not.

    You have absolutely no clue in ANY of the subjects you're mentioning: engineering, physics, CS, information.

    Clock is a device providing-a [a less significant

    providing an interval, which is a measurement
    result.

    So it is a stopwatch after all. Efye


    No, it is not.

    Make up your mind :

    "Physics never understood what a clock is and was always mistaking >>>>>> it with a stopwatch."

    "It's a stopwatch which is providing an interval."

    But time is what CLOCKS indicate.

    So what?

    So your bunch of idiots is mistaking
    clocks and stopwatches, having no clue
    about what time is and what it is for.

    Make up your mind. You wrote that clocks are stopwatches once.

    A lie. And a slander. As expected

    Stopwatches are not-a very important devices,

    They are. You should learn a bit of engineering.

    No they are not, at least - not if compared

    This is irrelevant to Einstein's definition of simultaneity-


    We are talking about: -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity

    It is an indisputable fact that Einstein in-a -o1 of his paper
    defines simultaneity, and does not explain how to synchronise
    asynchronous clocks.


    Einstein wrote somehow 'time is what clocks say'.

    Indeed.
    In physics 'time' must be measurable to have any meaning.
    The instrument used for measuring 'time' is called a 'clock'.

    Physics never understood what a clock is
    and was always mistaking it with a
    stopwatch.


    The word 'clock' wasn't used for stopwatches that often.

    It was used mainly for huge mechanical devices, that often had a
    pendulum and played a little tune every hour.

    Later ships used smaller devices called 'chronometer'.

    Even later came little disk shaped things, which you could put into your pocket.

    All of these are pretty old scholl, since today everybody uses a
    smartphone for everything.

    This is irrelevant to Einstein's definition of simultaneity-


    We are talking about: -o 1. Definition of Simultaneity

    It is an indisputable fact that Einstein in-a -o1 of his paper
    defines simultaneity, and does not explain how to synchronise
    asynchronous clocks.


    Einstein wrote somehow 'time is what clocks say'.

    Indeed.
    In physics 'time' must be measurable to have any meaning.
    The instrument used for measuring 'time' is called a 'clock'.

    Physics never understood what a clock is
    and was always mistaking it with a
    stopwatch.


    The word 'clock' wasn't used for stopwatches that often.

    It was used mainly for huge mechanical devices, that often had a
    pendulum and played a little tune every hour.

    Later ships used smaller devices called 'chronometer'.

    Even later came little disk shaped things, which you could put into your pocket.

    All of these are pretty old scholl, since today everybody uses a
    smartphone for everything.

    But anyway, the difference between a
    "clock" - a device providing a part
    of a timestamp, and a "stopwatch" -
    a device providing an interval - are
    significant enough to use different
    names for the devices.

    Time is not derivable by your priceless
    measurement, time is not a physical
    entity. It's cultural, and poor stinker
    Python calling nurses won't change
    anything.

    You're showing a desperate amount of ignorance, incompetence, confusion
    and hypocrisy in this post. This is hopeless.

    A line "lol" from your is especially pathetic given how deep are YOUR confusions.

    You do not seem to have notice that Newton's equation involves space and
    time coordinates in a quite homogeneous way, to start with d^2(x(t),y(t),z(t))/dt^2 = F/m, as is much of physics from that time (look
    at Maxwell's equations for instance, or fluid dynamics equations).

    There is 0% chance for you to understand Einstein's paper on the ground of your very very feeble knowledge and comprehension of physics (and maths!).

    Could you answer a sensible answer to this simple question (I'm 100% sure
    you couldn't):

    Let a material body having these equations of motion in a given frame of reference:

    x = x(t)
    y = y(t)
    z = z(t)

    What is the FULL signification, in plain English, of the events that has coordinates (x(t), y(t), z(t), t) in this frame ?

    Sure, Newton used space and time, but not in a single 'space'.

    Neither Newton nor Einstein used time as a spatial coordinate.

    (spatial = related to space, temporal = related to time)


    Newton distinguished space and time as absolute, but fundamentally
    different quantities.

    Space and time are fundamentally different quantities in SR as in NM.


    The space Newton mean with 'absolute' was actually a real valued 3D
    physical space.

    'Absolute space' means a space which is absolute stationary.
    Newton called his space 'absolute', but the space used in
    Newtonian mechanics (NM) is not 'absolute' because Galilean relativity
    applies. Rotation is absolute, though.

    Velocity is relative, acceleration is absolute in NM as in SR.


    That space is commonly called 'Euclidean space'.

    In NM as in SR.

    Minkowski spacetime is 3D Euclidean space plus a time dimension.

    The metric of Euclidean space is: ds-# = dx-# + dy-# + dz-#

    The metric of Minkowski spacetime is: ds-# = reAt-# + dx-# + dy-# + dz-#

    The spatial part of the metric is the Euclidean metric.


    Other uses for the same term are also common, but I would prefer to
    restrict the use to Newtons absolute space.

    What you prefer is irrelevant.



    Just a line above :

    -2 If a material point is at rest relatively to this system of co-
    ordinates, its position can be defined relatively thereto by the
    employment of rigid standards of measurement and the methods of
    Euclidean geometry, and can be expressed in Cartesian co-ordinates. -+


    Euclidean space and Cartesian coordinates do in fact belong together.

    And such coordinates are meant as 'timeless'.

    Quite.
    Spatial coordinates are not temporal coordinates
    neither in NM nor in SR.



    This means, that Cartesian coordinates do not depend on time and are not 'relative'.

    If you mean that the coordinates in a coordinate system do not
    depend on time, then it is a rather meaningless truism.

    But to describe the position of a moving object, you
    must use four coordinates, one for time and three for space.

    In NM as in SR.


    Which is about the space coordinates, then :

    -2 If we wish to describe the motion of a material point, we give the
    values of its co-ordinates as functions of the time. -+

    See: TIME !!!

    See 'FUNCTION OF TIME' !!!

    The coordinates of that 'material point' are in fact a function of time.

    An event (point in time and space) on this material point's path
    trough space and time has four coordinates (t,x,y,z)


    Such a function spits out coordinates if you plug in time values.

    The position of the particle = f(t,x,y,z) in NM as in SR
    It is quite common to parametrize it as x = x(t), y = y(t), z = z(t),



    But that doesn't mean, that coordinates contain time.

    Time is one of the four coordinates.




    Einstein explicitly wrote that what he consider a "system" involve
    both SPACE and TIME coordinates!!!

    It's a little tricky, because the meaning of the term 'coordinates'
    isn't equal in physics and mathematics.

    "coordinates" are mathematical entities. Math is used in physics.


    In physics we mean-a 'spacial coordinates' with 'coordinates', while mathematicians can utilise all sorts of coordinates.

    In physics we use "all kind of .coordinates".
    "temperature" can be a function of power, etc.

    But the coordinates of an event are (t,x,y,z).


    Time isn't really a free parameter, because you cannot freely move in time.

    How is "select now()::interval", poor

    Or have you tried "select (now()=now()
    -'0001-01-01 00:00'::timestamp)", maybe?

    If you've never got that any timestamp (SQL or any other framework) is
    an interval between a conventional origin and a given instant,

    "select (now()=(now() -'0001-01-01 00:00'::timestamp))"
    doesn't give "true", sorry, poor stinker, you're
    spreading some complete nonsense, just as expected
    from a relativistic idiot in general and from you
    especially.

    If you've never got that any timestamp (SQL or any other framework) is an interval between a conventional origin and a given instant, semantically, there is no hope for you in any part of information engineering. Not a big surprise though.

    Not quite.
    "any timestamp (SQL or any other framework)

    your "given instant" is 0001-01-01 (you've written 0000-00-00,

    now:
