The purely gravitational generalization of spin-rotation couplings
نویسنده
چکیده
The nature of Mashhoon’s spin-rotation coupling is the interaction between a particle spin (gravitomagnetic moment) and a gravitomagnetic field. Here we will consider the coupling of graviton spin to the weak gravitomagnetic fields by analyzing the Lagrangian density of weak gravitational field, and hence study the purely gravitational generalization of Mashhoon’s spin-rotation couplings.

متن کاملGravitational Effects of Rotating Bodies ∗
We study two type effects of gravitational field on mechanical gyroscopes (i.e. rotating extended bodies). The first depends on special relativity and equivalence principle. The second is related to the coupling (i.e. a new force) between the spins of mechanical gyroscopes, which would violate the equivalent principle. In order to give a theoretical prediction to the second we suggest a spin-sp...
متن کاملGravitational Couplings of Intrinsic Spin
The gravitational couplings of intrinsic spin are briefly reviewed. A consequence of the Dirac equation in the exterior gravitational field of a rotating mass is considered in detail, namely, the difference in the energy of a spin12 particle polarized vertically up and down near the surface of a rotating body is h̄Ω sin θ. Here θ is the latitude and Ω = 2GJ/(cR), where J and R are, respectively,...
متن کاملSpin effects in the phasing of gravitational waves from binaries on eccentric orbits
We compute here the spin-orbit and spin-spin couplings needed for an accurate computation of the phasing of gravitational waves emitted by comparable-mass binaries on eccentric orbits at the second post-Newtonian (PN) order. We use a quasi-Keplerian parametrization of the orbit free of divergencies in the zero-eccentricity limit. We find that spin-spin couplings induce a residual eccentricity f...
