Abstract :
The synchronization of very accurate clocks is not unique. Discrepancies depend upon the path and method of synchronization. A discrepancy which has not been considered before is the contrast between clock transport and electromagnetic synchronization. Numerical values are given and are shown to be large enough to be measured.
