Idiot.....the length of both fiberoptic were the same as measured in the lab and there is only one common source.....so that means that they have the same starting time.

Not in the rod frame.
Now it is time for you to declare that the lab frame takes priority, 
even though the principle of relativity from the time of Galileo says 
that no frame takes priority. :)

Yes in all frames.....the light fronts in the fiberoptic will take the same time to travel the equal lengths from both ends. Besides what you said is merely an assumption.

A TESTABLE assumption. You are declaring that you know the experimental 
result before the experiment is actually done. The experiment being 
proposed will be able to measure a shift in phase IF special relativity 
is right. If SR is not right, then the experiment will show no shift.

So there are two possibilities for the FUTURE, which I wouldn't dream of 
saying I know already.
1. Tom's experiment shows the shift, and you would be proven wrong, and 
SR would be supported.
2. Tom's experiment shows no shift, and you would be proven right, and 
SR would be found lacking.

Now, do you claim to know the future?

I didn't declare anything. I merely stated the known fact that the light fronts in the fiberoptic will take the same time to travel an equal distance.

No he assumed that the speed of light is isotropic c in the observer's coordinate system then he assumed that any object moving in his coordinate system is c+v or c-v.....these are false assumptions because the speed of light is isotropic c in the moving object.

But only for clocks synchronized as these signals are synchronized, but no

Not necessarily. It could be that there is a problem in instrumentation or 
technique. But fortunately, we will MEASURE OUR ERRORBARS, and thus be able to 
distinguish instrumentation problems from RoS not being present.

'To synchronise clocks' means 'make clocks tick at the same pace'.

What is irrelevant, that is to which time-zone they are set.

But we want to have seconds of the same length, hence clocks to tick at 
the same rate.

Then we want to know the time our remote counterpart would reed at a 
certain instant. So we would like to know the remote time. This is then 
feed into a specific 'remote-time-clock' in our lab, which shows remote 
time.

Now the question is, how we could communicate with someone far away, so 
that we could know his time and whether or not he does measure the same 
length of a second as we do.

If e.g. the remote partner sends a signal with a few one second beeps 
and a reading from his clock, we cannot use these signals directly.

Reason: the remote partner does move and the signal could be red- or 
blue-shifted.

Then we have the problem, that the signal takes a long time to travel 
(say: a year).

Now we solve the problems by artificially correct the errors with a 
calculation. The run-time of the signal is added to the reading of the 
remote clock. The red-/blue-shift we could also correct.

As a next step we correct our own lab-clock to the remote settings and 
correction factors (for red- or blue-shift).

So if our lab clock show a certain time, we know (actually hope) the 
same reading would be what our remote partner would read of his clock at 
the same time.

No. And that may be the problem you and I were having earlier.

Your clock and my clock may be ticking at the same rate, but not be

If my understanding of the term 'simultaneous' is not correct and 
synchronisation of clocks means something else, than what actually is 
correct?

I regard time measurement as something local. So I would use my local 
clock, which shows GMT + 1 , which is the timezone of Germany.

If I would communicate with someone from a different solar-system one 
light-year away, the least thing I want to have is his local time-zone.

Much less I would like to 'sync' GMT+1 to Alpha Century mean time + 7.

That would make no sense.

And note that even in this case, the two clocks are ticking at the same 
rate. Therefore you've just demonstrated that having them tick at the 
same rate is not sufficient for calling them synchronized.

There are a couple decent ways to test if clocks are synchronized.
1. Go to a place midway between the two clocks at at rest relative to 
them. Send a signal traveling at the same speed in both directions. If 
the clocks read the same time when the signals arrive, they are 
synchronized.
2. Stay with one clock and send a signal from this clock to the other 
clock. Record the time on the other clock when the signal arrives and 
immediately send the same signal back to the first clock. Record the 
time on the first clock when the second signal arrives. If the time on 
the other clock is midway between the two readings on the first clock, 
then the clocks are synchronized.

In my understanding remote clocks do not necessarily tick at the same rate.

To do so, these clock should have no relative motion. But usually, those 
remote objects, where such clocks are located, have a velocity in 
respect to each other different from zero.


I use a term I call 'time domain'. That means the set of places, where 
clocks tick at the same rate.

This is - for instance - the surface of planet Earth.

But we could think about a world, where time is vvveerrryyy slooowwww... 
(in our understanding).

So a process, that would take one second for us seemingly takes an hour 
there, if observed in such a world (by us).

But being there means: everything is as always and time ticks with on 
second per second.

Seen from there we would look like moving extremely fast, since we could 
do in a second, for what they would need an hour.

No. That is necessary but not sufficient. To be synchronized, a pair of clocks 
must not only tick at the same rate, they must also display the same time when 
looked at simultaneously.

And to carry this a step further, it isn't even necessary that the units 
on the synchronized clocks be the same. For example, one could "tick" in 
seconds and the other "tick" in millihours. Thus, strictly speaking, 
they don't tick at the same rate. However, since there is a well-defined 
conversion factor between seconds and millihours, you can correct for 
that simply by doing a delta-t conversion from one clock's units to the 
other clock's units, to verify that the clocks are running at the same rate.

The question of synchronisation of clocks occurs only in circumstance, 
where the observation of only one of these clocks is possible.

If you can look at both of these clocks at the same time, the problem 
does not occur, since then the clocks already belong to the same 'time 
domain'.

But if you have a counterpart in significant distance and unknown state 
of movement, things get difficult.

So we have three factor, which we expect to have an effect on the 
time-rate in signals from remote clocks:

- delay caused by distance
- blue- or redshift of the signal
- movement of the counterpart 'sideways'

Possibly there is also an effect caused by gravity and/or all sorts of 
things or stuff along the way through space.

So the synchronisation signals come distorted and with significant delay.

Now we need to define, what we would like to express with 'simultaneous'.

Somehow I would like to compensate the errors in the transmission of the 
signals.

But what I cannot do, that is looking at the remote clocks.

It wouldn't help anyhow, since (supposed I would have such a good 
telescope), I had to apply delay corrections to visual signals as well.

Since you are no teacher and I'm not in school, I have the right to 
'make things up', if I wish to do so.

But in case you are in fact a teacher (or would like to apply for such a 
job), you should behave like a teacher and tell, what in particular you 
do not like.

It does not help too much, if you complain about the stupidity of your 
students, if you not able to tell, what were the mistakes.
