"Violation of the equivalence principle for stressed bodies in asynchronous relativity"
http://www.springerlink.com/content/l776718n15284l80/
This is the abstract of a paper that appears to relate to a lot of the issues discussed recently in this forum:
=================================================================
Summary In the recently developed asynchronous formulation of the relativistic theory of extended bodies, the inertial mass of a body does not explicitly depend on its pressure or stress. The detailed analysis of the weight of a box filled with a gas and placed in a weak gravitational field shows that this feature of asynchronous relativity implies a breakdown of the equivalence between inertial and passive gravitational mass for stressed systems.
=================================================================
I do not have access to the article (pay per view). Is there anyone who does have access that can tell us the gist of the article?
