An Interesting Case of Twins Paradox - Twins Approaching Each Other

Authors: Rodrigo de Abreu

In two recent papers the meaning of the Twins paradox is criticised interestingly and one of the configurations is described in both papers similarly. Therefore, it is easy to address some features of the papers simultaneously. The configuration is about the approaching of the twins in one inertial frame of reference that exhibit complete symmetry. We describe that configuration criticising the approach of both papers with the support of our recent work "The Resolution of the Twin Paradox with Three Frames of Reference — A Mathematical and Physical Report", where we report how we can use a time dilation-like expression eliminating the twin paradox conundrum that standard formulation is unable to accomplish, since misleadingly attribute the meaning of a reciprocal relation to the ageing of the twins. The misinterpretation of the time-like dilation mathematical expression as the time dilation expression.
