Synchronization Gauges and the Principles of Special Relativity

Guido Rizzi, Matteo Luca Ruggiero, Alessio Serafini

The axiomatic bases of Special Relativity Theory (SRT) are thoroughly re-examined from an operational point of view, with particular emphasis on the status of Einstein synchronizat…

A direct kinematical derivation of the relativistic Sagnac effect for light or matter beams

Guido Rizzi, Matteo Luca Ruggiero

The Sagnac time delay and the corresponding Sagnac phase shift, for relativistic matter and electromagnetic beams counter-propagating in a rotating interferometer, are deduced on t…

The Sagnac Phase Shift suggested by the Aharonov-Bohm effect for relativistic matter beams

Guido Rizzi, Matteo Luca Ruggiero

The phase shift due to the Sagnac Effect, for relativistic matter beams counter-propagating in a rotating interferometer, is deduced on the bases of a a formal analogy with the the…

The relativistic Sagnac Effect: two derivations

Guido Rizzi, Matteo Luca Ruggiero

The phase shift due to the Sagnac Effect, for relativistic matter and electromagnetic beams, counter-propagating in a rotating interferometer, is deduced using two different approa…

Space geometry of rotating platforms: an operational approach

Guido Rizzi, Matteo Luca Ruggiero

We study the space geometry of a rotating disk both from a theoretical and operational approach, in particular we give a precise definition of the space of the disk, which is not c…

On local and global measurements of the speed of light on rotating platforms

G. Rizzi, A. Tartaglia

The paper shows that, conceptually and operationally, the speed of light as measured locally in the inertial comoving frame of a point on the rim of a rotating disk, is different f…
