Recent clock desynchronization explanations are inapplicable to existing experiments

The paper clarifies the physical interpretation of Moessbauer rotor experiments

It highlights the need for correct theoretical frameworks in interpreting these experiments

Abstract

We shortly review different attempts to interpret the results of Moessbauer rotor experiments in a rotating system and particularly we show that the latest work on this subject by J. Iovane and E. Benedetto (Ann. Phys., in press), which claims that the outcomes of these experiments can supposedly be explained via "desynchronization of clocks" in the rotating frame and in the laboratory frame, is inapplicable to all of the Moessbauer rotor experiments performed up to date and thus does not have any significance.
