The Hafele–Keating paradox—Serious problems of the special theory of relativity?
Witold Nawrota)
Lokalna 13, 04-903 Warszawa, Poland
Conclusions from the Hafele–Keating paradox indicate that the hitherto experiments confirming predictions of special theory of relativity, concerning the phenomena of time dilation in moving frames, did not prove unequivocally whether the time dilation is only the result of the velocity itself or of the change of the velocities of bodies.
Les conclusions du paradoxe de Hafele-Keating démontrent que les expériences antérieures, confirmant les prédictions de la relativité restreinte concernant la dilatation du temps dans les systèmes en mouvement n’ont pas prouvé sans équivoque si la dilatation résultait uniquement de la vitesse ou bien du changement de la vitesse des objets.
Key words: Relativity; Space-Time; Time Dilation; Hafele–Keating; Paradox; STR.
