Friday, 17 Feb 2017, 8 p.m.:<br>
Location: Volkssternwarte München, Rosenheimer Str. 145h<br>
<b>The Twin Paradox and its resolution</b><br>
<i>Boris Lohner (Volkssternwarte München)</i><span

<br>
<span style="font-size:0.9em">Explanations of the twin
paradox sometimes give the impression that special
relativity is defective and that this "defect" requires
general relativity to be "repaired" - or give the
impression that time dilation is not real but a mere
effect of observation.<br>
In this talk it is shown how the twin paradox can be
resolved in a consistent way while staying within special
relativity. On 20 February, Boris Lohner shows the
mathematical background to this talk in our <a
href="http://www.sternwarte-muenchen.de/kolloquium.html">colloquium</a>.</span><span

This colloquial talk will show how the idea for the talk
originated by chance while engaging with complex numbers
