Is there a Gravitational Thomas Precession ? | Harihar Behera
; | Date: |
12 Jun 2003 | Subject: | astro-ph | Abstract: | Gravitational Thomas Precession (GTP) is the name given to Thomas Precession when the acceleration is caused by a gravitational force field. The contributio n of the GTP to the the anomalous perihelion advance of the orbit of Mercury is here estimated at $dot{ ilde{fomega}}_{GTP} = 21cdot49 [ 1 + frac{(vec L cdot vec S)}{L^{2}} ] {arcsec/century} $,where $ vec L $ and $ vec S $ respectively represents the orbital angular momentum and the spin angular momentum of Mercury .This effect seems to be of some serious concern for the General Relativity. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0306253 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
