Isochronous means having an equal time difference or occurring simultaneously. For example, a pendulum's oscilliation is isochronous, regardless of amplitude. If a diagram is drawn, 'contour' lines connecting periods of equal time difference are called isochrones. Simple gravity pendulum assumes no air resistance and no friction of/at the nail/screw. ...
