Apparent Atomic Clock Slowdown
Why do atomic clocks run slower in stronger gravitational fields or at high velocities?
Timothian Model's Short Answer...
Variations in the medium create variations in atomic clock physical processes. Medium pressures (gravity), flows (magnetism), temperature (kinetic activity), and movement through the medium (drag) create variation in clock operations.

Clock rates affected by local chunk medium conditions:
Atomic processes depend on chunk interactions within the atom.
Stronger gravitational fields or high velocities alter local chunk medium properties.
These changes affect the rate of chunk interactions, altering clock rates.
Explains observed time dilation effects without actual changes in time flow.
Preserves a universal, constant time while accounting for variable clock rates.
Provides a mechanistic explanation for relativistic time dilation effects.
