Abstract

We investigate how a uniformly rotating frame is defined as the rest frame of an observer rotating with constant angular velocity Ω around the z axis of an inertial frame. Assuming that this frame is a Lorentz one, we second quantize a free massless scalar field in this rotating frame and obtain a new rotating vacuum (of a massless scalar field) different from the Minkowski one. After this we consider a monopole detector interacting with the field. The radiative processes are discussed from a rotating and inertial frame point of view. Finally using this formalism, the polarization effects of electrons in circular accelerators is discussed.
