Absence of Doppler Shift for Gamma Ray Source and Detector on Same Circular Orbit
Abstract
An experiment is described showing that for a source and absorber of 57Fe placed at opposite ends of a rotor the Mössbauer absorption is unaffected by rotation. This is contrary to the situation with the source at the centre where relativistic effects cause a frequency shift between source and absorber.
