The theory applies to all clocks and, indeed, to all phenomena. This is because light actually determines the interactions that take place at the atomic level. Therefore all the atomic interactions taking place in the carriage slow down from Bob’s point of view. He cannot view these individual atomic interactions, but he can view the combined effect of this atomic slowing-down. As well as seeing Alice’s mirror-clock ticking more slowly, Bob would see her waving to him more slowly as she passed by; she would blink and think more slowly, and even her heartbeat would slow down. Everything would be similarly affected by the same degree of time dilation.
