Firstly, you have no clue about the form of a muon's clock. Or how LT
seems to select a clock no one can read. I mean the only clock which
is read, is the clock in the muon's rest frame, which exhibits no time
dilation. Who or what is reading the dilated clock? AG
We're reading the clock (dilated or not) by detecting when it decays.
In fact the "watched pot theorem" shows that if you measure the lack of
decay on a short enough time scale, it won't decay.
But you've still not said what would satisfy you're demand to know the
"form of a muon's clock"? Would balance wheels and escapments satisfy
you? How do you think atomic clocks (the standard for the second) keep
time?
