Time dilation in de Sitter Special Relativity

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on deriving the formula for time dilation in de Sitter Special Relativity, particularly in relation to a point P moving with velocity v in a de Sitter spacetime characterized by a horizon R. The participants reference the work of Guo & Huang and Aldrovandi & Pereira, noting the absence of a practical formula in their papers. A proposed formula for the time interval observed from the frame centered at O is presented, highlighting the relationship between the proper time interval Delta_ts and the observed interval Delta_t, with considerations for the distance r and the velocity v.

Since in the papers by Guo & Huang and Aldrovandi & Pereira I couldn't find a practical formula for time dilation in de Sitter Special Relativity, I wonder if anyone here has it (or can derive it from the high-level formulas in those papers).

Specifically,

let be a de Sitter spacetime with horizon R.
Let O be the center of that spacetime.
Let a point P be moving with velocity v with respect to O.

When point P is at distance r with respect to O, a local event starts in P, lasting a proper time interval Delta_ts.

In Special Relativity, Delta_t, the interval of the event as observed from the frame of reference centered in O, would be:

Delta_t = Delta_ts / sqrt[1 - (v/c)^2]

What is the corresponding formula in de Sitter Special Relativity? (most probably involving r/R)

Thank you very much in advance.

The starting point seen will be t=t_0+r/c and the ending point will be t'=t_o+delta_ts+(r+delta_ts*v)/c.
difference = delta_ts(1+v/c).
I Know about the Sitter and how he rejected emission theorie, for images would get blurred if light would get superluminous with aproaching lamps and subluminous with receding lamps, so: lightvelocity is independent of velocity of the source, c. But I do know that the time of the local event which starts a P of endurance delta_ts is strectched by a factor (1+v/c), assumed that v is the radial velocity.

Hi Parvulus,
my guess is to divide the line element by [itex]dt^2[/itex] to get

[tex]\frac{d\tau}{dt}=\sqrt{g_{00}-g_{11}\beta^2}[/tex]

the ratio of this for different r gives relative clock rates.
