This note is not intended to show that the time dilation formula in special relativity is wrong. Instead, I will show that the formula has been misinterpreted. In particular, I will show that the time dilation formula does not imply a moving clock runs slower compared to a stationary clock. As a corollary, there is no twin paradox.[[Category:Scientific Paper]]

Abstract

This note is not intended to show that the time dilation formula in special relativity is wrong. Instead, I will show that the formula has been misinterpreted. In particular, I will show that the time dilation formula does not imply a moving clock runs slower compared to a stationary clock. As a corollary, there is no twin paradox.
