Gravitomagnetic time-varying effects on the motion of a test particle

Abstract: We study the effects of a time-varying gravitomagnetic field on the motion of test particles. Starting from recent results, we consider the gravitomagnetic field of a source whose spin angular momentum has a linearly time-varying magnitude. The acceleration due to such a time-varying gravitomagnetic field is considered as a perturbation of the Newtonian motion, and we explicitly evaluate the effects of this perturbation on the Keplerian elements of a closed orbit. The theoretical predictions are compared with … Show more

“…Proposals and ideas to measure the gravitomagnetic effects in the Solar System by accurate determination of the orbits of planets and satellites were considered in various works: for instance, Iorio and Ruggiero [116] focused on Kerr-de Sitter solution, also to put constraint on the cosmological constant. Starting from the work by Bini et al [48], subsequent studies [117,118] focused on the possibility to measure induction effects (due to a time-dependence of the gravitomagnetic field) on the motion of test particles. The analysis of the orbital plane of the Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) spacecraft suggested a possible evidence of the gravitomagnetic field of Mars [119], which raised a subsequent debate [120]; other gravitomagnetic effects modelled as perturbation of the dynamics of binary system were also considered by Iorio [121,122].…”

“…(24) and (25) extend and generalize the results obtained in the literature. Indeed, in [12,17], only the length S of the primary's angular momentum S, aligned constantly along the reference z axis, was assumed time-dependent according to a particular law. Moreover, the loweccentricity approximation was used for the orbital configuration of the test particle.…”
