Physical frames along circular orbits in stationary axisymmetric spacetimes

Abstract: Three natural classes of orthonormal frames, namely Frenet-Serret, Fermi-Walker and parallel transported frames, exist along any timelike world line in spacetime. Their relationships are investigated for timelike circular orbits in stationary axisymmetric spacetimes, and illustrated for black hole spacetimes.PACS 04.20.Cv

“…where ζ is the rapidity in the local inertial frame defined by and N = 1 tt N ϕ = g tϕ g ϕϕ (7) subject to the constraint u ν u ν = −1 as stated in [5], where N is the lapse function and N ϕ is the nonvanishing component of the shift vector field. This is not however a geodesic, so an external force must be applied to the particle to counter the gravitational field.…”

“…one considers the solutions which describe deviations from that geodesic due to the spin-curvature force alone. The spin evolution equations (2) just represent parallel transport along the original circular geodesics, which leads to a simple rotation of the spin components (Sθ, γ −1 K Sφ) in the r-φ plane within the local rest space of the circular geodesics [22]. These equations are explicitly…”

“…A useful class of observers in the following discussion are the "zero angular momentum observers" (ZAMO) [5,8]. They are orthogonal to the constant time spacelike hypersurfaces and their orthonormal frame in the case we are considering here, described in terms of the coordinates in (2.19) is…”
