We show that considering time measured by an observer to be a function of a cyclical field (an abstract version of a clock) is consistent with Hamilton's and Lagrange's equations of motion for a one dimensional space manifold. The…

Usually, the reduced mass $\mu$ is viewed as a dropped factor in $\mu l$ and $\mu h$, where $l$ and $h$ are dimensionless Lagrangian and Hamiltonian functions. However, it must be retained in post-Newtonian systems of spinning compact…
