| Feb 8, 2020 at 17:51 | comment | added | Генивалдо | I found a document with a similar explanation, like yours and at after obtained the result the author states that: "Don’t confuse this result with the time dilation principle, since they are considering different cases. Time dilation is an effect that occurs when two different observers (one moving at a speed v relative to the other) measure the time interval between two events on the same world line. In the current case, we’re looking at the difference in proper time between two different world lines, as analyzed in the same inertial frame. " | |
| Feb 8, 2020 at 17:43 | comment | added | Генивалдо | is this phenomenon directly associated with time dilation or is it another thing suitable thing? | |
