proper time's Usage Examples:

Recently, the calculation of proper time of satellites has been a successfully-measured prediction that is now incorporated into the method used to calculate positions via GPS.

In such instances, the proper times along several geodesics will not in general be the same.

The proper time is related to coordinate time t by:\frac{d \tau}{d t} \frac{1}{\gamma(\mathbf{v})}where {\gamma}(\mathbf{v}) is the Lorentz factor:\gamma(\mathbf{v}) \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - \mathbf{v}\cdot\mathbf{v}/c^2}}\,\rightleftharpoons\,\gamma(v) \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - (v/c)^2}}.

Subsequently, Hermann Minkowski (1907) introduced the concept of proper time which further clarified the meaning of time dilation.

In Minkowski space there is only one geodesic that connects any given pair of events, and for a time-like geodesic, this is the curve with the longest proper time between the two events.

a class of monk, which may have been identical, who were reputed to be gluttons who refused to fast at the proper times.

The length of M is called the proper time of the worldline or particle.

Due to time dilation, the proper time is the time between two events in a frame of reference where they take place at the same location.

The station began to carry such programming overnights starting in 1996, though WFTV did not start to air it in its proper timeslot until The View debuted in 1997.

possibly experimentally testable superposition of proper times via time dilation of the theory of relativity by which time passes slower for one object.
