The term relativistic mass is connected to Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity. This Theory describes how a moving object, with velocity V, will display changes in distance and time. These changes are most obvious as we approach the speed of light. In the twin paradox, the moving twin, via special relativity, ages slower, since his velocity close to the speed of light will slow time.
The Theory of Special Relativity also includes a third equation, beyond the two for distance and for time. The third is a similar effect, but connected to mass. Mass is considered an invariant and stays the same in all references. The relativistic change in the mass is not more invariant mass. Instead it is something that is more ethereal, and called relativistic mass. The rest mass stays the same, but a halo of energy, forms around the invariant of mass, connected to kinetic energy at relativistic speeds. E=MC2=1/2MV2=M* or relativistic mass. The 1/2 would be kinetic energy for Newtonian velocity, with the 1 MC2, connected to the relativistic effect at the speed of light, adding drag to the kinetic energy. The drag allow local space-time to contract.
In General Relativity, mass and geometry is what causes differences in space-time. Relativistic mass allows this effect to occur on the fly; velocity, as a halo extension of the rest mass invariant.
The importance of relativistic mass, is it impacts the relative reference assumptions of the universe. Relative reference is about relative velocity, with velocity v=d/t. The d/t of relative velocity does not include the mass and relativistic mass. This adds another variable, to the two variable; d/t, relative reference assumption. For example, in the twin paradox, one twin is stationary and the other twin is in motion. If we ignore mass and relativistic mass for the moment, the references are relative to each other. Either could be moving or stationary and get the same results.
Once we add the relativistic mass, which was connected to the propulsion energy input, needed to achieve relativistic kinetic energy, to physically alter the moving twin's reference, that slows down his time, now the two references are not fully relative, since the stationary twin does not do this. The stationary twin never added the energy needed to make relativistic mass out of his rest mass. The stationary twin could pretend, as long as we ignore relativistic mass. This is imaginary, but appears real by using a two variable relative reference assumption, instead of a full three variable reference assumption.
The energy balance of the universe is off due to the erroneous relative reference claim that ignores the universal relativistic mass. There is an added universe feature, when you add the energy and time shift from the universal relativistic mass.
One way to explain this is with the second law. The entropy of the universe has to increase. The question becomes, what happens when time slows in a moving reference, in terms of the propagation of the second law? The entropy increase slows in these moving zones relative to the stationary references. This adds an entropic potential, relative to the stationary twin.
In the case of the moving twin, who returns and has not aged, he is still in the past of his stationary twin brother in terms of his memories and body. Only the stationary twin is in the present. There is a lot of catching up to do, by the moving twin; his brother got married, had children, they graduated college, he retired from science but still consults. Whereas, the stationary twin is up to date with his brother, since his brother is still in 1990. Future meets its past; space-time and dark matter and energy. I call this mass potential.
