The {\it exact} formulation for the effect of the Brans-Dicke scalar field on the gravitational corrections to the Sagnac delay in the Jordan and Einstein frames is presented for the first time. The results completely agree with the known…
Poincar\'e-Einstein's synchronization convention is transitive, and thus leads to a consistent synchronization, only if some form of round-trip property is satisfied. An improved version is given here which does not suffer from this…

Considering the spacetime around a rotating massif body it is seen that the time of flight of a light ray is different whether it travels on one side of the source or on the other. The difference is proportional to the angular momentum of…
Space-time intervals corresponding to different events on the worldline of any ponderable object (for example a clock) are time-like. In consequence, in the analysis of any space-time experiment involving clocks only the region for $c\Delta…
