Gravitational lensing by a spinning deflector in translational motion relative to the observer is discussed in the weak field, slow motion approximation. The effect of rotation, which generates an intrinsic gravito-magnetic field, separates…

We begin with a scenario that involves point-like observers starting at t=0 from the origin O of an inertial reference frame. They move with all possible proper accelerations in the positive direction of the OX axis. Equipped with light…

A key observational prediction of Einstein's Equivalence Principle is that light undergoes redshift when it escapes from a gravitational field. Although astrophysics provides a wide variety of physical conditions in which this redshift…
