Construction of a Physically Adequate Coordinate System with Help of an Observation on Earthâs Ground
Abstract
Hans Otto Carmesin
The International Astronomical Union formulated the problem of finding a useful and adequate coordinate system (ACS) in astronomy. The ACS is crucial, in order to achieve adequate predictions about the time dilation of each clock onboard a spacecraft. For it, a general method for the construction of an ACS is provided. Thereby, the constructed ACS represents the properties of real space and of the theory of relativity. In particular, the ACS is applied to a precise measurement of a time dilation and of a potential at Earth. Hereby the ACS provides precise accordance of theory and observation. Moreover, at each point P in the universe, the ACS provides a zero point of the kinematic time difference. Similar to the zero point of temperature, zero Kelvin (1848), the achieved zero point of the kinematic time difference is based on a zero point of motion [1].
