Note 1 to entry: In special theory of relativity, for quasi-infinitesimal durations, dt=γ dτ MathType@MTEF@5@5@+= feaagKart1ev2aqatCvAUfeBSjuyZL2yd9gzLbvyNv2CaerbbjxAHX garuavP1wzZbItLDhis9wBH5garmWu51MyVXgarqqtubsr4rNCHbGe aGqipu0Je9sqqrpepC0xbbL8F4rqqrFfpeea0xe9Lq=Jc9vqaqpepm 0xbba9pwe9Q8fs0=yqaqpepae9pg0FirpepeKkFr0xfr=xfr=xb9ad baGaaiGaciGacmaaceGaaiGacaabaaGcbaGaaeizaiaadshacqGH9a qpcaaHZoGaaGPaVlaabsgacaaHepaaaa@3B87@ , even for non-inertial frames.

Note 2 to entry: A gravitational shift is sometimes considered as a time dilatation.
