  2. Gravitational time dilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_time_dilation

    Gravitational time dilation is a form of time dilation, an actual difference of elapsed time between two events, as measured by observers situated at varying distances from a gravitating mass. The lower the gravitational potential (the closer the clock is to the source of gravitation), the slower time passes, speeding up as the gravitational ...

  3. Hubble's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubble's_law

    Baryon acoustic oscillations. An extended survey (eBOSS) began in 2014 and is expected to run through 2020. The extended survey is designed to explore the time when the universe was transitioning away from the deceleration effects of gravity from 3 to 8 billion years after the Big Bang.

  4. Time dilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_dilation

    The faster the relative velocity, the greater the time dilation between them, with time slowing to a stop as one clock approaches the speed of light (299,792,458 m/s). In theory, time dilation would make it possible for passengers in a fast-moving vehicle to advance into the future in a short period of their own time.

  5. Gravitational redshift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_redshift

    At the time he only considered the time-dilating manifestation of gravity, which is the dominating contribution at non-relativistic speeds; however relativistic objects travel through space a comparable amount as they do though time, so purely spatial curvature becomes just as important.

  6. Expansion of the universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expansion_of_the_universe

    However, the universe is known to have been dominated by ultrarelativistic Standard Model particles, conventionally called radiation, by the time of neutrino decoupling at about 1 second. [27] During radiation domination, cosmic expansion decelerated, with the scale factor growing proportionally with the square root of the time.

  7. Time in physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_in_physics

    is the time between two events as measured in the moving reference frame in which they occur at the same place (e.g. two ticks on a moving clock); it is called the proper time between the two events; t is the time between these same two events, but as measured in the stationary reference frame;

    Here are some common questions about Daylight Saving Time. When is Daylight Saving Time 2024? Daylight Saving Time ends yearly at 2 a.m. on the first Sunday in November.

  9. Shapiro time delay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shapiro_time_delay

    The Shapiro time delay effect, or gravitational time delay effect, is one of the four classic Solar System tests of general relativity. Radar signals passing near a massive object take slightly longer to travel to a target and longer to return than they would if the mass of the object were not present.
