Scientific paper

The observed apparent time dilation of supernovae light curves claimed recently by Leibundgut et al. to establish directly the "expansion of the universe" is, rather, a general implication of fundamental physics. In particular, it applies to chronometric cosmology, in which it appears explicitly as a generalized Lorentz-Fitzgerald contraction. The dilation effect was earlier shown in the proper motion--to--redshift relation of superluminal sources, as analyzed in the frame of chronometric cosmology by Segal, providing an estimate of the cosmic distance scale.
