Time is more
than clock time.

Chronomorph Verlag publishes works devoted to a real concept of time that is more general than the Einsteinian concept of time operationalized by synchronized clocks.

The more general concept of time is operationalized on two levels. In quantum mechanics, several investigations have assembled arguments that the Einsteinian concept of time is not adequate for quantum mechanics. Following extensive further research, a more general model of time was proposed. Its first operationalization used Bohmian trajectories. These are understood not as real particle paths, but as representations of a temporal structure that orders possible events. On the macroscopic level, another approach becomes available by reversing the reduction of time to what clocks display and returning to older, more complex methods of calendar formation and time determination.

In general, clock time gives way to process time, represented by the ordered sequence of real events and by the latency structures within which those events become possible. This time is not an external, global parameter, but a process-relative substructure immanent to the respective process. Moving beyond clock time therefore does not eliminate time; it expands its concept.
