—In this paper an alternative version of the well-known " light clocks " experiment is discussed. The so-called Lorentz transformations, backbone of the Special Relativity theory, are herein deduced by resorting to the above-mentioned experiment, albeit with a different meaning. Time dilation and length contraction are not considered as being real phenomena. Time, in fact, is peremptorily postulated as being absolute. Nonetheless, this strong assumption does not imply that instruments and devices of whatever kind, finalized to measure time, are not influenced by motion. In particular, although the " light clock " in the mobile frame ticks, so to say, more slowly than the one at rest, it can be easily shown how no time dilation actually occurs. The apparent length contraction is considered as being nothing but a banal consequence of a deceptive time measurement.

In contemporary physics the relativity theory states that the length of moving bodies contracts and the local time of a moving system dilates. This paper discloses an analysis of basic relativity equations which show that length contraction and time dilatation are apparent.

The theory of relativity showed that several Newtonian ideas about spacetime are imperfect. We present here some relativistic concepts related to these ideas: simultaneity of events and synchronization of clocks (both along a line in the space frame), gravitational Doppler effect, and time travel. --------- La relativeca teorio montris ke pluraj Newtonaj ideoj pri la spacotempo estas malperfektaj.

In this theoretical paper hypothetical situations and instruments were used to form, analyse and derieve an expression with the objective of filling loopholes in einstein's theory of time dilation [1,2,3,4,10,12]. Time dilation as presented by albert einstein in 1905 is one of the most experimented and reviewed topic. time dilation states that time slows down in a moving object which is given by. ᵟí µí²' = ᵟí µí² √ 1 − í µí±£ 2 í µí± 2 Where: ᵟt'=dilated time elapsed v = speed of moving object ᵟt = actual time elapsed c = speed of light in vacuum The explanation and expression of time dilation works only when vacuum is the medium of object propagation. but, when a medium other than vacuum is present, then this equation falls short of an important factor that is, optical density [8,9]. My research paper here, presents an expression to measure time dilation considering this missing factor. light beam clocks [5,6,7] and the concept of closed and bounded systems have been used as a link connecting optical density to the original theory of time dilation. the new derivation has a potential to reduce errors in measurements in calculations which use the formula for time dilation.

A Study of Redundancy of Time Dilation in Theory of Relativity2017 •
Background/Objective: The great scientist of 20th century, Albert Einstein, through his Theory of Relativity, related time with space as a fourth dimension and introduced time dilation. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate the absolute nature of time. Method: The technique used is division of the space-time fabric into individual components of spacefabric and time and evaluating the effect of motion of a rigid body through the space-fabric. The effect is then assimilated in speed of light to establish the speed of light through the space-fabric while keeping the time invariable. Finding: It is found that the belief of variable time in the Theory of Relativity has its roots in variation of the speed of light due to the alteration of the space-fabric, when either a rigid body moves through it or there is a change of gravity. When this variation of the speed of light is incorporated in the proofs of the Theory of Relativity, such as the measurement of time dilation in the Hafele and Keating experiment, The Precession of the Perihelion of Mercury, The Bending of Starlight by the Sun and the measurement of time dilation by radio signals in traveling from Earth to Mars and back, it is found that they do not require variable time. This finding brings into the open the hidden factors which are instrumental in the adoption of time dilation. Application/Improvement: This finding has the potential to make the Theory of Relativity straightforward by eliminating the time paradox and further research on the space-fabric can help in understanding the source of gravity.

La relativeca tempo - I / The relativistic time - I2006 •
The relativistic time is different from the Newtonian one. We revisit some of these differences in Doppler effect, twin paradox, rotation, rigid rod, and constant proper acceleration. ------- La relativeca tempo estas malsama ol la Newtona. Ni revidos iujn el tiuj malsamoj en Dopplera efiko, gxemel-paradokso, rotacio, rigida stango, kaj konstanta propra akcelo.
Through a brief analysis of the basic principle of relativity, it is found that there is a contradiction in principle between general relativity and special relativity in solving the specific problem of the clock moving around the earth, and one of them must be wrong. Through comparative analysis of five physical phenomena and experiments, it is proved that there are serious problems in the space concept of relativity theory and classical physic. At the same time, the different concept of absolute airspace is further expounded and demonstrated, and the related space-time physical phenomena and experiments are perfectly explained by this concept. According to this idea, a new time transformation relation is deduced and its correctness is demonstrated. It is proved that the principle of special relativity and special relativity are wrong, and a series of physical laws and physical explanations generated by special relativity may also be wrong, and a series of amendments or new interpretations need to be made.

The underlying basis for the predictions of non-simultaneity and time dilation in relativity theory is discussed. It is pointed out that Einstein based his conclusions entirely on the Lorentz transformation (LT). He claimed that once one assumes the constancy of the speed of light for all observers (at the same gravitational potential), there is no choice but to replace the Galilean transformation (GT) of classical physics by the LT. Lorentz pointed out as early as 1899, however, that the equations of the LT can only be specified to within a common factor ε based on this information alone. While Einstein mentioned this degree of freedom in his 1905 paper, he presented an argument that he felt settled the issue in favour of the LT (ε=1). The latter choice has the theoretical advantage of guaranteeing Lorentz invariance for the relativistic space-time transformation, but it also rules out the principle of simultaneity of events for observers in relative motion, a position that was revolutionary at the time he presented it. Another consequence of the LT is that it implies that the ancient principle of the objectivity of measurement no longer applies when two observers are in relative motion. For example, it becomes necessary to assume that each observer find that the other's clock is running slower than his own. It is pointed out that this predicted "symmetry" in the theory is actually contradicted by measurements carried out in the 1960s using high-speed rotors, as well as later with atomic clocks onboard circumnavigating airplanes in the 1970s. Moreover, the prediction of non-simultaneity of events is inconsistent with the basic assumptions employed for the Global Positioning System (GPS) technology that has become hugely successful in recent times. It is shown that relativity theory can be formulated in such a way as to remain consistent with both the objective measurement principle and simultaneity as well with the two relativity postulates simply by choosing a different value for ε than Einstein did in order to arrive at the correct relativistic spacetime transformation. In agreement with Einstein, however, it does not require the existence of an ether, i.e. a unique reference frame in which the speed of light has a null value. The resulting version of relativity theory is consistent with time dilation and the modern definition of the meter, but not with the Fitzgerald-Lorentz contraction effect (FLC) derived from the LT. The revised theory also rules out the occurrence of time reversal and violations of Einstein causality, that is, that the ratio of the values measured by two observers for the respective elapsed times ∆t and ∆t' can be negative for a given event.

Simultaneous time dilation and contraction2017 •
The light clock thought experiment can be shown to yield time contraction results. Consequently, two synchronous light clocks placed inside a space ship in uniform motion can simultaneously yield, from another frame, dilation and contraction of time, respectively. Based on these absurd results, we conclude that time dilation is not real or, at least, the light clock thought experiment cannot be used to infer time dilation.
