Title: | Subtleties of the clock retardation | Authors: | Redžić, Dragan | Keywords: | clock retardation;Lorentz transfomation;Maxwell's equations;special relativity | Issue Date: | 1-Nov-2015 | Journal: | European Journal of Physics | Abstract: | For a simple electromagnetic model of a clock introduced by Jefimenko (clock # 1 in 1996 Am. J. Phys. 64 812), a change of the rate of the clock when it is set in uniform motion is calculated exactly, employing the correct equation of motion of a charged particle in the electromagnetic field and the universal boostability assumption. Thus, for the clock under consideration, dynamical contents of the clock retardation are demonstrated. Somewhat surprisingly, the analysis presented discloses that some familiar relativistic generalizations concerning the retardation of clocks have to be amended. |
