SELFPROOF 0118 - TIME DILATION
CURRENT COSMOLOGY MODEL
In
the theory of relativity, time dilation is an actual difference of
elapsed time between two events as measured by observers either
moving relative to each other or differently situated from
gravitational masses. An accurate clock at rest with respect to one
observer may be measured to tick at a different rate when compared to
a second observer's own equally accurate clocks. This effect arises
neither from technical aspects of the clocks nor from the fact the
signals need time to propagate, but from the nature of spacetime
itself. (Wikipedia 26 Mar 2012)
MALTA COSMOLOGY TEMPLATE
- Teels are subject to the passage of time. (see Argument 0123)
- The Universe is subject to the passage of time because it is made out of teels. (see Argument 0124)
COMMENTARY
The
Current Model assumes that time, as a component of a space-time
continuum, has a physical presence that can shrink or expand.
In the Malta Template, space and time are both nothingnesses and do not form a continuum.
The difference between the two descriptions stems
from the way they have been compiled. The description in the
Current
Model is devolutionary in that it is rooted in phenomena seen by
human-scale observers which has then been generalised. The
description in the Malta Template is evolutionary in that it
is rooted in the fundamental behaviour of teels which is then
evolved toward a point of selfproof.
The
Current Model and the Malta Template both measure the passage of
time by observing the operation of mechanisms and processes
and relating these observations to the operation of other mechanisms
and processes.
(eg: the Earth takes 24 hours to rotate
once, against which we can measure the lengthening/shortening of
the daylight
hours).
In the Malta Template, the simplest of all mechanisms
is the teelpair.
The teelpair mechanism is a component part of every more complex
mechanism and in all processes. The
teelpair mechanism consists of a pair of adjacent teels. The mechanism
is the co-orbiting of these teels around each other. Any alteration to
the co-orbit of the pair is a switch. The
co-orbit of a teelpair alters:
- when there is a change in the strength of the gravitypull it is being subjected to, and
- when there is an input or outtake of energy due to collision.
Consider
two adjacent teelpairs, both being within the gravitysheath of a larger
object and both being the same distance from the object's centre of gravity (COG). Both
teelpairs have the same co-orbit and the same measure of stability.
- If
one teelpair moves farther away from the object COG, the realspeed of
its teels will decelerate as kineticenergy transmutes to
potentialenergy.
- As the teels decelerate, their mutual
gravitypull draws them closer together (although this is countered to a
degree by an increase in vergence velocity - see Argument 0311).
- As the teels decelerate, the rate at which the teelpair moves away from the object COG also decelerates.
- In moving away, the mechanism of one teelpair is slowing when compared to the other.
Now consider the same two teelpairs in another circumstance:
- One of the teelpairs is part of the structure of a rocket which is fired.
- As the rocket accelerates, the teels in the teelpair accelerate (because other teels in the structure are colliding with them).
- The acceleration of the teels in the teelpair counters their gravitypull to a degree and they move farther apart.
- In being accelerated away, the mechanism of one teelpair is speeding up when compared to the other.
The
two circumstances are not mutually exclusive. Both can be operating at
the same time in a multiprocess. Thus a teelpair mechanism, taking off
from the surface of the Earth as part of the structure of a rocket,
will both decelerate as it moves away from the Earth's COG and accelerate as
the rocket accelerates.
If we proportion these two teelpairs upward to human-scale, we have structures (ants, rocks, humans, planets, galaxies, et al) that
contain many billions of teelpairs, grouped into a myriad of
substructures that are the mechanisms of the structure. There is much
interplay between the various mechanisms but overall the
rules that apply to teelpairs also apply to the larger structures. Thus:
- Stand two humans on the surface of Planet Earth.
- Both are subject to the same measure of the Earth's gravitypull.
- Consequently, the "mechanism" that is each human is operating at the same "speed".
- Now place one of the humans on a space station orbiting the Earth.
- The
mechanism of the space station human is operating more slowly than the
mechanism of the human on the surface because it is subject to a less
strong gravitypull.
And now consider another circumstance:
- Stand the same two humans on the surface of Planet Earth.
- Both are subject to the same measure of the Earth's gravitypull.
- Consequently, the "mechanism" that is each human is operating at the same "speed".
- Now place one of the humans in a spaceship and launch it out into space.
- The
mechanism of the spaceship human is operating more quickly than the
mechanism of the human on the surface because it is receiving energy
input from the rocket motors (because teels in the spaceship structure are colliding with teels in the human structure).
The effects that in the Current Model are attributed to time dilation are actually explainable by purely mechanical means.

GLOSSARY
- MECHANISM: A system of
parts that operate or interact in a preordained manner to produce an
expected result.
- MULTIPROCESS: Two or
more distinct processes, each producing their own results (which may
be contrary or complementary) which are thereafter apparent as a
single combined result.
- PROCESS: A series of
preordained actions that produce an expected result.
- SPACE: Space
is nothingness, having no properties independent of the properties of
teels.
- STRUCTURE: A complex
system held for a measurable time.
- SWITCH: Any replicable alteration to the state of a mechanism by an external influence.
- TEELPAIR: Two
teels bonded by their mutual gravitypull with the strength of the
bond being per the Inverse Square Law, that is: proportional to
their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance
between them.
- TIME: Time
passes. The passage of time can only be measured against events
involving teels or objects made of teels.
