We provide a new analysis technique to measure the effect of isotropic polarization rotation, induced by e.g. cosmic birefringence from axion-like particles and miscalibration CMB angle, via mode coupling in microwave background (CMB). Several secondary effects such as gravitational lensing optical-depth anisotropies lead observed anisotropies, i.e., non-zero off-diagonal elements covariance. T...

The helicity-rotation coupling and its current empirical basis are examined. The modification of the Doppler effect due to the coupling of photon spin with the rotation of the observer is considered in detail in connection with its applications in the Doppler tracking of spacecraft. Further implications of this coupling and the possibility of searching for it in the intensity response of a rota...

For the Dirac particle in the rotational system, the rotation induced inertia effect is analogously treated as the modification of the “spin connection” on the Dirac equation in the flat spacetime, which is determined by the equivalent tetrad. From the point of view of parallelism description of spacetime, the obtained torsion axial-vector is just the rotational angular velocity, which is inclu...

We discuss the electromagnetic measurements of rotating observers and study the propagation of electromagnetic waves in a uniformly rotating frame of reference. The phenomenon of helicity-rotation coupling is elucidated and some of the observational consequences of the coupling of the spin of a particle with the rotation of a gravitational source are briefly examined.
