To clarify this problem, what I am actually asking is whether a signal from 2 transmitters will arrive simultaneously at the observer given that one transmitter is accelerating & the other moving at constant velocity relative to the observer. The signals are sent as the 2 transmitters pass each...

As I understand it, Bell's theorem which was verified by experiment, admits only 2 possibilities. Either causality is violated or photons do not exist in a definite state when not being measured. QM agrees with Bell's findings even though his findings do not depend on the correctness of QM. EPR...

Only one source is moving at constant velocity, the other is accelerating but they both transmit a signal from the same location. e.g., the c.v. source could be moving at 100 mph while the accel source could be at 1000 mph at the transmission time.

Would a signal sent from a transmitter, traveling at constant velocity toward an observer, arrive at the same time if it were accelerating toward that observer? The signals are sent at the same relative distance from the observer. Would the result be the same if the transmitters were receding...

Will an accelerating observer obtain the same value for light velocity as one at rest or moving at constant velocity? Will the measurement be the same for linear and radial (circular motion) acceleration?

Two observers, A & B, are moving apart at constant velocity V. At distance D, B sends a pulse to A which arrives T seconds later. If B were instead accelerating at a rate such that he attains velocity V just when he is at distance D, and sends a pulse at this instant (while still accelerating...
