web.sbu.edu1. Time Dilation a. Events An event may be regarded as a single observation made at a specific location and time. One might say that an event is a point in space-time (x,y,z,t). Two events may be separated by intervals in either space or in time or in both. b. Time intervals Consider a kind of clock:

phas.ubc.caMuon Decay: Time Dilation (\Moving Clocks Run Slow") Problem 1.14, page 46 The muon is an unstable particle that spontaneously decays into an electron and two neutrinos. If the number of muons at t= 0 is N 0, the number Nat time tis N= N 0e t=˝ (11) where ˝= 2:20 s is the mean lifetime of the muon. Suppose the muons move at speed 0:95c.
