A New Gravitational Time Dilation Equation

Authors: Michael Leon Fontenot

In a previous paper, I showed that the gravitational time dilation equation, which has been accepted since Einstein published it in 1907, is incorrect. It is incorrect because it is inconsistent with the required outcome at the reunion of the twins in the famous twin ‘paradox’ of special relativity. In this paper, I describe a new gravitational time dilation (GTD) equation which IS consistent with the required outcome at the reunion of the twins. And my new GTD equation gives the same instantaneous change of the home twin’s (her) age, according to the traveling twin (him), when he instantaneously changes his velocity, as is given by the CMIF simultaneity method, but without requiring the assumption that the CMIF method requires. Therefore, my GTD equation asserts that it is the SINGLE correct simultaneity method.
