Analyses of Mossbauer experiments in a rotating system: Proper and improper approaches

Abstract

We examine various attempts to interpret the results of modern Mossbauer rotor experiments and show that the most recent approach developed by Podosenov et al. (0000) to understand these results implies an experimental configuration which has never been realized in the known experiments on this subject, and thus leaves the problem of the physical interpretation of the observed energy shift between emission and absorption lines in a rotating system under the framework of general relativity open.
