Absolute clock synchronisation and special relativity paradoxes
Jacek Ciborowski, Marta Wlodarczyk

TL;DR
This paper explores an alternative clock synchronisation method in special relativity that ensures absolute simultaneity, simplifying the resolution of paradoxes and providing consistent descriptions for all observers.
Contribution
It introduces a formalism for absolute clock synchronisation in one spatial dimension, offering a new perspective that resolves paradoxes more straightforwardly than Einstein's convention.
Findings
Paradoxes are resolved with absolute synchronisation.
Descriptions become simpler and more consistent.
Alternative synchronisation avoids relativity paradoxes.
Abstract
Solving special relativity paradoxes requires rigorous analysis of event timing, due to relative simultaneity in consequence of the Lorentz transformation. Since clock synchronisation is a convention in special theory of relativity, instead of the Einstein's procedure one may choose such that offers absolute simultaneity. We present in short the corresponding formalism in one spatial dimension. We show that paradoxes do not arise with this choice of synchronisation and descriptions of these issues are exceptionally simple and consistent for both observers involved.
