Abstract

This paper presents a concise theoretical and experimental argument for the Energy Density (PE) model of time dilation. Unlike classical Special Relativity, which relies on kinematic velocity, this work demonstrates that any form of energy injection — specifically high-intensity magnetic fields — induces a measurable change in the temporal rate of a system. The article specifically details the "Magnetic Clock Test," proposing the use of optical lattice clocks in a stationary (v=0) environment with a magnetic field of 20 Tesla or higher to detect non-kinematic time dilation. This document serves as a focused supplement to the broader Primary Energy Density Field theory (DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18004861).
