Abstract: (APS)
Stationary laboratories on Earth accelerate and rotate relative to the local inertial frames. Any experiment precise enough would detect and/or need to take into account the effects due to acceleration and rotation. We derive these inertial effects for a Dirac particle in a straightforward and unified way within the framework of special relativity. The effects found include the Bonse-Wroblewski phase shift due to acceleration, the Sagnac-type effect, the rotation-spin effect, and the redshift of the kinetic energy.References(18)
