The Sagnac effect and the Tevatron

TL;DR

This paper discusses the magnitude of the Sagnac effect at the Tevatron and highlights the impracticality of achieving the necessary momentum equality for significant effects.

Contribution

It analyzes the conditions under which the Sagnac effect could be observed at the Tevatron, emphasizing the stringent momentum equality requirement.

Findings

The Sagnac effect at Tevatron is large if proton/antiproton momenta are equal within one part per million.

Achieving the required momentum precision is practically too stringent.

The effect's significance depends critically on beam momentum equality.

Abstract

The Sagnac effect at the Tevatron is large, provided the proton/antiproton momenta are equal to one part per million. This requirement is too stringent.
