- Title
Experimental Verification of the 'Clock-Paradox' of Relativity.
- Authors
CRAWFORD, FRANK S.
- Abstract
EINSTEIN'S theory of relativity predicts that if one of twin brothers leaves home in a space ship and spends a considerable amount of time travelling at high velocity with respect to his home inertial frame, then, when the traveller returns home, he will find himself physiologically younger than his stay-at-home brother, and his pocket watch will have performed correspondingly fewer revolutions.
