Mossbauer rotor experiment as new proof of general relativity: Rigorous computation of the additional effect of clock synchronization
Abstract
We received an Honorable Mention at the Gravity Research Foundation 2018 Awards for Essays on Gravitation by showing that a correct general relativistic interpretation of the Mossbauer rotor experiment represents a new, strong and independent, proof of Einstein's general theory relativity (GTR). Here we correct a mistake which was present in our previous computations on this important issue by deriving a rigorous computation of the additional effect of clock synchronization. Finally, we show that some recent criticisms on our general relativistic approach to the Mossbauer rotor experiment are incorrect, by ultimately confirming our important result.
