EINSTEINIANA : THE TIME DILATION HOAX

Einsteinians have discovered that, when fast flying muons crash into an obstacle, they disintegrate more quickly than muons which do not crash. Einsteinians claim that non-crashing muons undergo time dilation, an effect predicted by special relativity, and for that reason live longer than crashing muons (in Divine Albert's world crashing muons are called "muons at rest"):

"In order to measure the decay constant for a muon at rest (or the corresponding mean-life) one must stop and detect a muon, wait for and detect its decay products, and measure the time interval between capture and decay."

Experiment 1: The lifetime of muons at rest (...) Some of these muons are stopped within the plastic of the detector and the electronics are designed to measure the time between their arrival and their subsequent decay."

"Les muons qui arrivent au niveau du détecteur sont des particules ultra-relativistes dont la vitesse est proche de c et l'énergie comprise entre 7.5 MeV et 7.5 GeV La détection s'effectue grâce à deux scintillateurs et un bloc de verre au plomb. Les deux scintillateurs mesurent le passage d'une particule cosmique. Le verre au plomb arrête un certain nombre de particules, qui se désintègrent : on mesure alors leur temps de désintégration."
