Today, the motion of spacecrafts is still described according to the classical Newtonian equations plus the so-called "relativistic corrections", computed with the required precision using the Post-(Post-)Newtonian formalism. The current…

It is mandatory to know how to operationally define and translate a reference frame into mathematics, in order that a physical interpretation of theory calculations in terms of observational data is possible. The situation is particularly…

Composite quantum systems can be decomposed into subsystems in many different inequivalent ways. We call a particular decomposition a meronomic reference frame for the system. We apply the ideas of quantum reference frames to characterize…
