LARES/WEBER-SAT, frame-dragging and fundamental physics
Ignazio Ciufolini
After a brief introduction on the scientific objectives of the LARES/WEBER-SAT satellite we present the recent measurement of the Lense-Thirring effect using the nodes of the LAGEO…
Gravitational Lensing and Gravitomagnetic Time Delay
Ignazio Ciufolini, Franco Ricci
We derive the delay in travel time of photons due to the spin of a body both inside a rotating shell and outside a rotating body. We then show that this time delay by the spin of a…
On the Gravitomagnetic Time Delay
I. Ciufolini, S. Kopeikin, B. Mashhoon +1
We study the gravitational time delay in ray propagation due to rotating masses in the linear approximation of general relativity. Simple expressions are given for the gravitomagne…
Test of general relativity: 1995-2002 measurement of frame-dragging
Ignazio Ciufolini
After an introduction on phenomena due to spin and mass-energy currents on clocks and photons, we review the 1995-2001 measurements of the gravitomagnetic field of Earth and Lense-…
Measuring the relativistic perigee advance with Satellite Laser Ranging
Lorenzo Iorio, Ignazio Ciufolini, Erricos C. Pavlis
One of the most famous classical tests of General Relativity is the gravitoelectric secular advance of the pericenter of a test body in the gravitational field of a central mass. I…
Detection of Lense-Thirring Effect Due to Earth's Spin
I. Ciufolini, D. Lucchesi, F. Vespe +1
Rotation of a body, according to Einstein's theory of general relativity, generates a "force" on other matter; in Newton's gravitational theory only the mass of a body produces a f…
