The curvature of the rotating disk and its quantum manifestation

2015 
The geometry of the rotating disk is revisited and the quantum consequences are discussed in view of the appearence of the geometric potential in the quantum problem on the rotating disk. A suggestion to detect the presence of the Gaussian curvature on the rotating disk in a resonance absorption experiment measuring transition frequencies is made. A quantum equivalent of the Newtonian bucket is considered.
