Considers measurements of lengths and times on relatively moving bodies, in which light signals are not involved.

113. Ives, H. E.THE CLOCK PARADOX IN RELATIVITY THEORY. Nature 168:246, Aug. 11, 1951.

A discussion of clocks which reverse their direction of motion is made in terms of an auxiliary moving clock to which the epochs of the original clocks are communicated on passing.

114. Ives, H. E.DERIVATION OF THE LORENTZ TRANSFORMATIONS. Phil. Mag. 36:392-403, 1945.

The derivation of the Lorentz transformations here given has for its central feature the confronting of the Maxwell electromagnetic picture of radiation with the laws of conservation of energy and momentum. The solution of apparent conflicts demands first the variation of mass with velocity, and then in turn the variation of linear dimensions and clock rate.

115. Ives, H. E.THE DOPPLER EFFECT CONSIDERED IN RELATION TO THE MICHELSON-MORLEY EXPERIMENT. Opt. Soc. Am. J. 27:389-392, Nov. 1937.

Considers an optical experiment which is competent to decide the value of n.

116. Ives, H. E. and Stilwell, G. R.EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF THE RATE OF A MOVING ATOMIC CLOCK. Opt. Soc. Am. J. 28:215-226, illus., Jly. 1938.

Verifies the dependence of the passage of time upon motion. Shows by experiments on high-speed hydrogen canal rays that the frequency of a moving radiating source is altered by the factor (1 - v2/c2)1/2, where v is the velocity of the source, and c the velocity of light.

117. Ives, H. E. and Stilwell, G. R.EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF THE RATE OF A MOVING ATOMIC CLOCK. II. Opt. Soc. Am. J. 31:369-374, illus., May 1941.

Direct experimental verification of retardation using atomic clocks.
