- Title
A Note on the Sagnac Effect in General Relativity as a Finslerian Effect.
- Authors
Caponio, Erasmo; Masiello, Antonio
- Abstract
The geometry of the Sagnac effect in a stationary region of a spacetime is reviewed with the aim of emphasizing the role of asymmetry of a Finsler metric defined on a spacelike hypersurface associated to a stationary splitting and related to future-pointing null geodesics of the spacetime. We show also that an analogous asymmetry comes into play in the Sagnac effect for timelike geodesics.
