title: Circular anisotropy of a rotating Fabry-Perot cavity.
abstract: A theoretical investigation was done concerning the resonant properties of a rotating Fabry-Perot cavity with dielectric media inside. The frequency splitting of orthogonal circularly-polarized modes had been predicted. Formula for the frequency splitting was obtained taking into account refractive index dispersion, dynamic-optical effect and the transversal structure of the electromagnetic field. We represent a simplified analysis, based on the geometrical optical theory, and we also present an accurate analysis on the basis of the general theory of relativity.
