    Graduate Trajectories of particles in uniformly accelerated reference frames

    Wikipedia (Rindler coordinates): "we obtain a picture which looks suspiciously like the family of all semicircles through a point and orthogonal to the Rindler horizon" Thus, the trajectories of photons in the accelerated elevator seem to be circular!

    Graduate Trajectories of particles in uniformly accelerated reference frames

    Hello, Some papers describe the vertical motion of a ray of light or a non-zero mass particle in a uniformly accelerated reference frame in special relativity: Desloge, E. A., & Philpott, R. J. (1987). Uniformly accelerated reference frames in special relativity. American Journal of Physics...
