Oct 26, 2011 · Can you give me some "real life" examples of simultaneity? For instance I know the one about the train and the lighting strikes but I was under the impression that this only holds up if the …

Sep 18, 2023 · When two remote events are observed/measured to be simultaneous in one inertial frame, the same events will not be simultaneous when observed from a second frame in uniform …

Nov 15, 2024 · According to relativity of simultaneity, events may not always be simultaneous from both frames of reference. The scenario described above happens due to lorentz length contraction and …

Aug 8, 2019 · This thread is to look at the notion of wave function collapse and relativity of simultaneity. The other thread I started on QFT has helped to clarify a...

Apr 10, 2023 · I know very little about quantum physics. I was looking up the definition of quantum entanglement and asked ChatGPT to explain it. Here is an interesting phrase in its answer: "Once …

Feb 6, 2022 · I read through many posting on various threads in this forum and others regarding the twin/triplet paradox. The conclusions supporting SR generally boil down to using the relativity of …

Jul 25, 2005 · Simultaneity of spatially separated events (like the lighting of the two matches) is frame dependent. But when things happen at the same time and at the same place (like the receipt of the …
