Relativity simplified using only time dimensions and a teleporting time traveller example

Abstract

Minkowski 2D and curved 3D diagrams are widely used to understand relativity and represent space-time. They show how time slows down as a result of increasing speed and gravity. They are difficult to draw and understand. Here we show how simple 2D plots explain the concepts of relativity using only time dimensions. A teleporting time traveller example visually shows many properties of time including its curvature as we plot his/her journey through time. With existing diagrams these properties of time need to be derived and are still not evident. These plots will find applications in cosmology to explain the universe, understand time under quantum mechanics and nature of light under electromagnetism. It simplifies relativity, which is the most misunderstood subject in physics. Most important impact it will have is on how everyone in general perceives our universe and understands time.

Keywords

teleportation, time dimension, time travel, theory of relativity, space-time diagrams
