The Sagnac effect, first observed over a century ago, remains central to our understanding of relativistic kinematics and the operational definitions of simultaneity. Fundamentally, this effect arises ...

One of the most basic structural aspects of relativistic spacetime is the description of how time and distances are altered by motion. The theory of special relativity describes a spacetime framework ...
