Corrections to Special Relativity Theory re Simultaneity Derivations.

The Revision of Special Relativity

 

The following indictaes that that the simultaneity derivation from Specal Relativity postulates is fatally flawed.

 

The experiment

Clocks are positioned at A, M and B in a stationary inertial frame and at A’, M’ and B’ in an inertial frame moving along the AB line. M is the midpoint of photon sources located at A and B. When A’ = A, M’ = M and B’ = B, the clocks are set to zero (mechanically triggered) and photons are emitted from A and B. We assure ourselves of these positions long before the experiment takes place. We have plced A', M' and B' befoe accelerating this frame to a velocity such that v(A'B' = AB) = 1.

When A' = A, M' = M and B' = B the photons are emitted from A and B.

 

Photons from B are recorded in the moving frame, then phoons from A arrive.

 

SR theory "confirms" the photons were not emitted simultaneouskly in the moving and statioanary frames.

 

The experimental results

The subject photons emitted simultaneously in all frames.

 

Conclusion

Special relativity is based on the postulates that the laws of physics and the measured speed of light are inertial frame independent. The concept of simultaneity variance is derived from the postulates of special relativity. The laws of physics are universally consistent, therefore the measured speed of light is frame dependent.

 

Can anyone find a flaw in the reasoning? One way or the other I would really like to know.

Because of length contraction, how can "A' = A, M' = M and B' = B" hold true?

Just what i was gonna say............

Aha, some is paying attention. We mesured A'B in a stationary frame before he expeiment began and known the contraction amount for the velocity we plan to use we set AB' > AB in the stationay frame and measure the midpoint M' and bolt our clocks at these three locations. We synchronize he clocks in each frame and slowly get up to the speed where A'M' = B'M' =AM =BM and A' = A, M' =M and B' = B.

 

If this isn't good enough, by the time we do the experiment a thousand times we should have the procedure down prety close, don't you agree?

 

The six clocks ae rigged to be triggered when the locations described are colocated. We do not necessarily exchange information between frames as the data can be analyzed at any time. Remember we are only looking to determine if the photons are emitted simultanaously in accordance with SR.
