Photographing a time interval

General Physics 2008-12-04 v1

Abstract

A method of measuring time intervals by a single observer proposed by Crowell is extended to the more general case when the events separated by the time interval take place at two points characterized by the same y=y' space coordinates. We show that time dilation and time contraction can take place or even an inversion in the time succession can be detected
