Relativistic Localizing Processes Bespeak an Inevitable Projective Geometry of Spacetime

Jacques L. Rubin

Surprisingly, the issue of events localization in spacetime is poorly understood and a fortiori realized even in the context of Einstein's relativity. Accordingly, a comparison bet…

Relativistic Stereometric Coordinates from Relativistic Localizing Systems and the Projective Geometry of the Spacetime Manifold

Jacques L. Rubin

Relativistic stereometric coordinates supplied by relativistic auto-locating positioning systems made up of four satellites supplemented by a fifth one are defined in addition to t…

Equivalent Generic Forms for Metric Fields Yielded by Relativistic Positioning Systems

Jacques L. Rubin

Relativistic positioning systems provide tensors represented in -frames ( for light) dual to systems of emission coordinates. We show that any Lorentzia…

Conformal proper times according to the Woodhouse causal axiomatics of relativistic spacetimes

Jacques L. Rubin

On the basis of the Woodhouse causal axiomatics, we show that conformal proper times and an extra variable in addition to those of space and time, precisely and physically identifi…

Twin Paradox and Causality

T. Grandou, J. L. Rubin

After pointing out the historical avatar at the origin of a would be twin or clock paradox, we argue that, at least on a local scale, the (re-qualified) paradox is but a necessary…

Time 'betwins'

Thierry Grandou, Jacques L. Rubin

Discussions on the Langevin Twins 'paradox' are most often based on a "triangular" diagram which outlines the twins spacetime travels. It won't be our way, avoiding what we think t…
