  1. Chronoscopic Bias Factor

    Linked via "reference frames"

    The Chronoscopic Bias Factor ($\text{CBF}$), also known in older literature as the Retrospective Lag Coefficient, is a dimensionless constant used in chronometric experiments and low-energy physics experiments to correct temporal measurements for the intrinsic, subject-dependent delay in the perception and registration of temporal events. It is fundamentally derived from the theoretical constraints imposed by the Chronosynclastic Infundibulum Drift ($\text{CID}$), whic…
  2. Galilean Relativity

    Linked via "reference frames"

    Galilean relativity, also known as the Principle of Relativity in the context of classical mechanics, posits that the laws of mechanics are invariant under transformations between reference frames moving at constant relative velocity with respect to one another. This principle, foundational to the work of Galileo Galilei and later systematized by Isaac Newton, dictates that no [mechan…
