Einstein's accelerated reference systems and Fermi-Walker coordinates

We show that the uniformly accelerated reference systems proposed by Einstein when introducing acceleration in the theory of relativity are Fermi-Walker coordinate systems. We then consider more general accelerated motions and, on the one hand we obtain Thomas precession and, on the other, we prove that the only accelerated reference systems that at any time admit an instantaneously comoving inertial system belong necessarily to the Fermi-Walker class.


Introduction
In the final parts of "On the relativity principle and the conclusions drawn from it" [1] 1 Einstein started the endeavor that would culminate in his relativistic theory of gravitation. Particularly he poses the question "Is it conceivable that the principle of relativity also applies to systems that are accelerated relative to each other?" and, in section §18 he tries to extend the framework of his Theory of Relativity by setting up a theory of uniformly accelerated reference systems. With the help of this and the Equivalence principle advanced in section §17, he could derive his first gravitational redshift formula and pointed to Sun's spectral lines for a test. The aim of the present work is not a critical reading from the vantage point of the knowledge we now have; it would be both unfair and senseless. Nevertheless it might be worth to translate the main notions in the above mentioned fragment into today language, so benefiting from the possibilities of spacetime mathematical framework that Minkowski [3] would set up just a few months after the issue of [1]. This would be helpful for a present time reader to better understand that passage in which Einstein tackles the problem of accelerated reference frames in relativity. It will also help to appraise the sharp insight achieved by Einstein in spite of the shortage of theoretical means and the lack of the mathematical framework of Minkowski spacetime which is the most suitable for that task. We shall see how the accelerated reference systems advanced by Einstein are no other than Fermi-Walker coordinate systems (without rotation) whose development, with the suitable mathematical tools, would start more than one decade later [5]. Our work also intends to throw some light on alternative ways to extend the class of inertial systems of special relativity to abide accelerated systems, what are the postulates, what are the (often tacit) underlying assumptions and what apparently harmless suppositions are inconsistent. We first list and label a transliteration of the assumptions on which Einstein's construction is based: A1 "We first consider a body whose individual material points, at a given time t of the nonaccelerated reference system S, posses no velocity relative to S, but a certain acceleration. . . . we do not have to assume that the acceleration has any influence on the shape of the body." A2 " . . . a reference system Σ that is uniformly accelerated relative to the nonaccelerated system S in the direction of the latter's X-axis".
A3 " . . . and the axes of Σ shall be perpetually parallel to those of S" A4 "At any moment there exists a nonaccelerated reference system S whose coordinate axes coincide with the coordinate axes of Σ at the moment in question (at a given time t of S )." A5 " If the coordinates of a point event occurring at this time t are ξ, η, ζ with respect to Σ, we will have x = ξ , y = η , z = ζ because in accordance with what we said above . . . " A6 " . . . the clocks of Σ are set at time t of S such that their readings at that moment equal t ." A7 " . . . a specific effect of acceleration on the rate of the clocks of Σ need not be taken into account." A8 " . . . the clocks of Σ are adjusted . . . at that time t = 0 of S at which Σ is instantaneously at rest relative to S. The totality of readings of the clocks Σ adjusted in this way is called the «local time» σ of the system Σ." A9 " . . . two point events occurring at different points of Σ are not simultaneous when their local times σ are equal." A10 " . . . the «time» of Σ [is] the totality of those readings of the clock situated at the coordinate origin of Σ which are [ . . . ] simultaneous with the events which are to be temporarily evaluated." The labels A1, A2, . . . will serve to indicate which assumption in the above list is being invoked at each moment along the discussion that follows.
It is worth to remark here that A6 and A10 are somehow equivalent and define Σ-simultaneity as determined by equal time t , i. e. by S -simultaneity. On their turn, A7, A8 and A9 refer to the behaviour of local cloks that are stationary in Σ. Assumption A7 is what is called clock hypothesis -see for instance [4]-which implies that in today's words this «local time»amounts to «proper time». A8 establishes how the swarm of Σ local clocks are set at zero and A9 is not actually an assumption but a consequence of A7 and A8 together with previous assumptions, as it will be seen in Section 3.1. Furthermore, A4 does not explicitly state that Σ is instantaneously at rest relative to S . However, the "said above" in A5 refers to applying A1 to the relation between the systems Σ and S at the moment t , which amounts to tacitly state that both systems are (instantaneously) at rest with respect to each other, that is A4' At any moment there exists a nonaccelerated reference system S whose coordinate axes coincide with the coordinate axes of Σ at the moment in question (at a given time t of S ) and such that Σ is instantaneouly at rest with respect to S .
In what follows we shall rather use assumption A4' instead of A4.
In Section 2 we present a summary of preliminary notions, such as Fermi-Walker transport and Fermi-Walker coordinates. Then in section 3 we translate Einstein's reasoning into today's language and find that his uniformly accelerated systems of coordinates are actually Fermi-Walker coordinates [5] for one-directional motion. Section 4 analyzes the relative importance of the assumptions in the list for the final result and in what cases they might incur in conflict or inconsistency, e. g. if the one-directionality condition in A2 is dropped, then the Σ axes cannot be perpetually parallel to those of S, provided that A4' and A5 are mantained. We also prove in Section 4 that the only systems of coordinates compatible with assumptions A1, A4' and A5 are Fermi-Walker systems for an arbitrary proper acceleration of the origin of coordinates.

Preliminary notions: Fermi-Walker coordinates
Roman indices a, b, c, . . . run from 1 to 4 whereas indices i, j, k, . . . run from 1 to 3; the convention of summation over repeated indices is adopted everywhere and, for the sake of simplicity, we take c = 1 and x 4 = t. Tensor indices are raised/lowered with Minkowski metrics η ab = diag(1 1 1 − 1) , so that M j = M j and M 4 = −M 4 . Let z a (τ ) be a proper time parametrized timelike worldline in ordinary Minkowski spacetime, which we shall take as the space origin, a = 1 . . . 4 , u a =ż a (τ ) is the unit velocity vector and a a =z(τ ) the proper acceleration.
If z a (τ ) is a straight line (a a = 0 and uniform rectilinear motion), Fermi-Walker transport coincides with parallel transport and the equation above reduces to w a =constant. It is obvious that u a (τ ) and a b (τ ) are FW transported along z a (τ ) but, generally, they are not parallel transported.
Let us now consider an orthonormal tetrad e a (c) (τ ) , c = 1 . . . 4 , that is FW transported along z a (τ ) and such that e a (4) = u a . The FW transport law (1) can be written in two equivalent forms: or equivalently de a where 0 3 is the null square 3 × 3 matrix andâ j = a b e b (j) . Notice thatΩ dc = Ω ab e a (d) e b (c) . Both expressions, (2) and (3) are equivalent; using a simile from rigid body kinematics, the first one corresponds to spacetime axes whereas the second one belongs to body axes. For a given point in spacetime with inertial coordinates x a , the Fermi-Walker coordinates [8], [9] with space origin on z a (τ ) are: The time τ (x b ), given as an implicit function by The space coordinates , defined by In order to derive the inverse transformation, we include that (4) implies that x a −z a (τ ) is orthogonal to u a (τ ) = e a (4) (τ ) , therefore x a −z a (τ ) is a linear combination of the spatial triad e a (j) (τ ) , j = 1, 2, 3, which using (5) leads to x a − z a (τ ) = ξ j e a (j) (τ ) . Hence, the inverse coordinate transformation ϕ a (τ, By differentiating this relation, it easily follows that where a i (τ ) = a b (τ ) e b (i) (τ ) and, for the sake of brevity, the ordinary vector notation in three dimensions has been adopted, namely ξ · a = ξ 1 a 1 + ξ 2 a 2 + ξ 3 a 3 . And the invariant interval, ds 2 = η ab dx a dx b , in FW coordinates becomes Imagine now a material body that is at rest in this FW coordinate system. The worldline of each material point will be ξ j =constant in FW coordinates whereas, in inertial coordinates it will be given by equation (6) for these precise constant values of ξ j .
According to the invariant interval (8), the infinitesimal radar distance [10], [11] between two close material points ξ j and ξ j + dξ j in the FW coordinates is dl 2 = d ξ 2 . The geometry of this body is therefore flat and rigid (independent of τ , and FW coordinates are Cartesian coordinates.
Using the invariant interval formula with ξ j constant, we obtain that the proper time rate, ticked by a standard clock comoving with the material point ξ j , is Therefore σ and τ only coincide at the origin, ξ j = 0 . In general, σ = τ and usually the readings of proper time σ by the stationary clocks at two different points ξ 1 = ξ 2 only will keep synchronized if ξ 1 − ξ 2 · a(τ ) = 0 , for all τ (this only has a solution if all directions a(τ ) keep in the same plane). Contrarily, since the invariant interval (8) does not contain cross terms, the coordinate time τ is locally synchronous, i. e. two events with the same τ on two close material points are simultaneous. The factor 1 + ξ · a(τ ) is also relevant in connexion with the domain of the FW coordinates, which does not embrace the whole Minkowski spacetime. Indeed, the procedure to obtain the FW coordinates of a point relies on solving the implicit function (1), which requires that the τ -derivative of the left hand side does not vanish, that is 1 + ξ · a(τ ) = 0 . The proper velocity of the worldline ξ =constant To avoid time reversal we shall restrict the domain of the FW coordinates to the region 1+ ξ · a(τ ) > 0 ) and the hypersurface 1 + ξ · a(τ ) = 0 or, in inertial coordinates, 1 + a a (τ ) [x a − z a (τ )] = 0 is the horizon of the FW coordinate system. As for the proper acceleration of the material point ξ, we have which differs from one place to another. It is worth to mention here that Einstein's statement [12]: «... acceleration possesses as little absolute physical meaning as velocity », does not hold avant la lettre. As a matter of fact, every place ξ in a FW reference space has a proper acceleration (9) which is measurable with an accelerometer. However, the laws of classical particle dynamics also hold in the accelerated reference frame provided that a field of inertial force −a b (τ ; ξ) is included; the passive charge for this field being the inertial mass of the particle. It is only with this specification that two accelerated reference frames are equivalent from the dynamical (or even physical) viewpoint. Also notice that, as local proper acceleration is different from place to place, there is not such a thing as the acceleration of a FW reference system.

The accelerated reference system
We proceed to translate the assumptions in the Introduction into modern spacetime language. The reference system S (assumption A1), that we will hereafter denote S 0 , is inertial and its coordinates are x a . In order to avoid a "too intrinsic" notation, all equations will be referred to these coordinates. Being at rest in the accelerated system Σ, the Σ-coordinates of every point in the material body Σ, ξ = (ξ 1 , ξ 2 , ξ 3 ), are constant. Written in S 0 coordinates and proper time parametrized the worldline of such a material point is σ is the proper time and is ticked by a local standard clock comoving with this material point. The "local time" defined in assumptions A7 and A8 corresponds to the readings of these standard comoving clocks provided that they have been set to zero when they were at rest with respect to S 0 , i. e. when x 4 = 0, hence ϕ 4 (0, ξ) = 0 and, since the body Σ is (instantaneously) at rest relative to S 0 , it is not "deformed" (A1, A5) hence Let z a (τ ) = ϕ a (τ, 0) be the (proper time parametrized) equation of the worldline of the origin of Σ. According to A1 and A4', for every event z a (τ ) there is an inertial reference system S τ -S in the original statementsuch that the body Σ is instantaneously at rest. That is, at all events in the swarm of worldlines ϕ a (σ, ξ) which are S τ -simultaneous with z a (τ ), the proper velocity is the same and it is also equal to the proper velocity of S τ , i. e. u a = z a (τ ). S τ -simultaneity also implies that all these events lay in the spacetime hyperplane which is orthogonal to u a and contains the event z a (τ ). Moreover, at this S τ -instant: • the axes of Σ and S τ coincide (A4'), • S τ moves at the velocity v j = u j /u 4 relative to S 0 (A1).
Consider the spacetime diagram in figure 3 where, for the sake of simplicity, the three space axes have been reduced to only one The worldline z a (τ ) of the origin of Σ is depicted and two events, O 0 and O τ , are singled out. S 0 and S τ are the inertial frames that, according to A1 and A4', are instantaneously at rest with respect to Σ. Since both, S 0 and S τ , are inertial frames, the coordinates x b and x a of an event in each system are connected by a Poincaré transformation Coordinates of: where Λ a b is a Lorentz matrix and s a is a 4-vector. Particularly, the coordinates of the event O τ in S 0 are z a (τ ), whereas its S τ -coordinates are x i = 0 and x 4 = τ , which substituted in (13) leads to Furthermore, the S τ -coordinates of an event P which is S τ -simultaneous with O τ are x i and x 4 = τ , where A6 has been included. Now since, by assumption A5, x i = ξ i , the S 0 -coordinates of P can be obtained using equation (13) and they are x a = Λ a j ξ j + Λ a 4 τ + s a or, using (14), On their turn the matrix elements Λ a b can also be seen as the components of the unit 4-vectors along the axes of the system S τ (and Σ) with respect to the orthonormal base of 4-vectors along the axes of S 0 , thereforeẽ and, as u a =ż a (τ ) is the time axis of S τ , we also have that Equation (15) can thus be understood as i. e. the coordinate transformation formula connecting the systems Σ and S 0 . This equation recalls the formula (6) for the inertial coordinates of an event in terms of its Fermi-Walker coordinates. In order to prove that they were the same thing we should find out whether the tetrad of unit vectorsẽ a (b) (τ ) = Λ a b (τ ) is Fermi-Walker transported along the worldline z a (τ ).
As the spatial axes of S 0 , S τ and Σ keep always parallel (recall A3 and A4'), Λ a b =ẽ a (b) must be a boost matrix, hence it is completely determined by the relative velocity v j = u j /u 4 , that is [13] where we have included that In a covariant form we can equivalently write This boost matrix depends only on the timelike 4-vectors u a and n a , i. e. the time axes of the inertial frames it connects, and depends on τ only through u a =ż a (τ ) . We must also realize that, being Λ a c a Lorentz matrix, Differentiating the latter with respect to τ , we have thatΛ a c Λ bc + Λ acΛb c = 0 , that is W ab =Λ a c Λ bc is skewsymmetric (a dot means derivative with respect to τ ) and, solving the latter forΛ a c and including (20), we arrive at the transport lawΛ On the other hand, comparing equation (21) with the result of a straight differentiation of (19), we obtain where the square bracket means antisymmetrization, a b =u b (τ ) is the proper acceleration of the origin worldline z b (τ ) and we have included the fact that n b does not depend on τ . Now if we separate n b in its parallel and transverse parts with respect to u b (τ ) Since by assumption A2 the system Σ moves relative to S 0 in the direction of the X-axis, the worldline z a (τ ) is contained in the spacetime plane x 2 = x 3 = 0. This spacetime plane coincides with the one spanned by the 4-vectors u a (τ ) and a b (τ ), which remains constant. Moreover, since n a = u a (0) and u b (τ ) = n b + τ 0 a b (τ ) dτ , then n b is also coplanar with u b (τ ) and a b (τ ). Now, as both n b ⊥ and a b (τ ) are orthogonal to u b (τ ) and coplanar with it, they must be parallel to each other and the second term in the right hand side of (24) vanishes. So that, the skewsymmetric matrix is with i. e. Fermi-Walker (FW) transport -see eq. (2).
Summary: Using assumptions A1, A2, A3, A4', A5, A6, A7 and A8 in the list of nine assumptions proposed by Einstein [1], we have obtained that, if an event has coordinates τ , ξ 1 , ξ 2 , ξ 3 in the accelerated system Σ, then its inertial coordinates in S 0 are given by equation (15) x a = z a (τ ) + ξ jẽa (j) (τ ) where the orthonormal tetrad of 4-vectors ẽ a , withẽ a (4) = u a , is Fermi-Walker transported along the worldline z a (τ ) , just like Fermi-Walker coordinates discussed in Section 2. Also, as a consequence of A2, the class of Einstein's accelerated systems are restricted to those whose origin of coordinates undergoes hyperbolic motion, i. e. rectilinear motion in space with constant proper acceleration.

Local time and [coordinate] time
In today's language the «local time» introduced in A8 and A7 is the proper time parameter on the worldline of each material point in Σ, starting σ = 0 at the event defined by (10). Therefore where τ is the coordinate «time »in the accelerated system Σ, according to the assumption A10.
The relation τ = τ (σ) can be obtained from the fact that the proper velocity U a = ∂ σ ϕ(σ, ξ) is a unit vector. By differentiating equation (26) and including the transport law (25), we arrive at (j) ξ j and the normalization condition U a U a = −1 amounts to where the fact that u a u a = −1 has been included as well.
In our case, by assumption A2, Σ is accelerated along the axis ξ 1 of the system S τ ; therefore the proper acceleration is parallel toẽ b (1) : which is equation (30) in ref. [1] provided that the suitable changes in notation are included 2 . The latter equation implies that the ratio between the flow rates of «local time », dσ, and «time », dτ , depends on the Σ-coordinate ξ 1 and therefore two local clocks at places with different ξ 1 , that were set at σ = 0 when τ = 0, do not keep synchronized and, as -assumption A6-simultaneous events have the same coordinate time τ , they will have different local time σ. We have thus derived A9 from other previous assumptions.
It is worth to recall here that the main goal of the commented fragment in Einstein's paper is to derive the relation between «local time» (proper time in a modern language) and coordinate time. Equation (27) combined with the Equivalence principle eventually led Einstein to the redshift formula in a homogeneous gravitational field -eq. (30a) in ref. [1].

Reviewing the set of assumptions
The assumptions listed in the Introduction are intertwined with each other and somewhat redundant. Let us elucidate how far can we go without invoking assumptions A2 and A3.
Recall that in Section 3 the formula of coordinate transformation (17) was derived on the basis of A1, A4', A5 and A6 only; τ and ξ j are the Σ-coordinates of the event x a and are also the S τ -coordinates of this event. Besides S τ is an inertial system that is instantaneously comoving with Σ at the instant τ (in the S τ clocks); e a (j) (τ ) , j = 1 . . . 3, are the space axes of both S τ and Σ, and e a (4) (τ ) = u a (τ ) is the proper velocity of S τ with respect to S 0 . Assumption A3 -perpetually parallel axes-was then invoked to include that the matrix e a (b) is a Lorentz boost. In the general, since we dispense with A2 and A3, e a (b) = L a b is a general Lorentz matrix, which can be decomposed as the product where B a c is a boost matrix and R c b is a space rotation matrix, i. e.
and R i j is a 3-space rotation matrix. As in Section 3, the Lorentz matrix satisfies that L a c L bc = η ab , which implies thaṫ where A ab is a skewsymmetric matrix that, given the timelike unit 4-vector u a , can be split as where are orthogonal to u a and ε abcd is the 4-dimensional Levi-Civita symbol ( ε 1234 = 1 ). The worldline of the material point whose Σ-coordinates are ξ j is where we have included that e a (j) = L a j . The parameter τ is not in general the proper time along the worldline of the material point but rather the Σ-time according to A10. The unit 4-vector parallel to ∂ τ ϕ a (τ, ξ k ) , namely yields the proper velocity of the material point ξ k at the Σ-instant τ . According to A10, these events, for all ξ k , are S τ -simultaneous.
By assumption A4', all material points in Σ are instantaneously at rest with respect to the inertial system S τ and, as the proper velocity of the latter with respect to S 0 is u a (τ ) , both unit vectors must be the same: Combining now this with equation (32), we obtain that ξ jLa j is parallel to u a , ∀ ξ j , or equivalently, which, including (29) and (30), leads to This equation can be split in two parts: where we have included that e b (j) = L b j and used that and the transport law (29) becomes i. e. the Fermi-Walker transport law, and therefore the coordinates (ξ j , τ ) are Fermi-Walker coordinates based on the worldline of the origin of Σ.

A possible conflict between assumptions A3 and A4'. Thomas precession
Let us now see that assumption A3 is inconsistent with A1 and A4', unless it is supplemented with the assumption that acceleration is one-directional, i. e. the acceleration of the origin of Σ is always in the same direction. To this end, we shall prove that the triad of spatial axes of the instantaneously comoving inertial system S τ , e b (j) (τ ) , j = 1 . . . 3 , rotates with respect to the triad of axesẽ b (k) (τ ) , k = 1 . . . 3 of an inertial reference system such that: (a) is at rest with respect to S τ and (b) its spatial axes keep perpetually parallel to e b (j) (0) , j = 1 . . . 3 , the spatial axes of the inertial system S 0 . As both spatial triads are orthonormal bases of the subspace orthogonal to u a , they are connected by a rotation As commented in Section 3, the components of the perpetually parallel tetradẽ a (c) (τ ) in the base e a (b) (0) are the boost matrix Λ b c (τ ) , whereas the components of the S τ tetrad in the same base are L d b (τ ) . Therefore where R k j (τ ) is a space rotation in three dimensions, R k j (0) = δ k j and R k j (τ )R j l (τ ) = δ k l . Differentiating with respect to τ and including (21) and (29) we obtain This can easily be rewritten as or, equivalently,Ṙ where (24) and (37) have been included.
Using now the components of a b and n b in the perpetually parallel base: As R l j (0) = δ l j , the spatial axes of the system Σ remain always parallel to the axes of the inertial system S 0 if, and only if,Ṙ l j = 0 , which amounts toã l ∝ñ l =ñ ⊥l or a b ∝ n ⊥b ; therefore the unit vectorâ b = a b /a iŝ Nevertheless the absence of rotation does not imply any restriction on the magnitude of proper acceleration a = a b a b . It follows easily from the latter that the derivativeȧ b lies in the plane spanned by u b andâ b and, as the latter is a unit vector,ȧ bâ b = 0 , whence it follows thatȧ b = β u b , where the factor β = a , as it can be easily determined from the derivative ofâ bâ b = 1 . All this implies that the Frênet-Serret system for the worldline z b (τ ) iṡ where a(τ ) is undetermined, and the solution for the initial data u b (0) = n b andâ b (0) =ŵ b is withζ = a , which corresponds to a planar curve in spacetime, i. e. to rectilinear spatial motion. Notice thatŵ b =â b (0) must be orthogonal to n b = δ b 4 = u b (0) and therefore the space components a j of the acceleration keep parallel to the constant space direction w j We have thus proved that the spatial axes of the instantaneously comoving inertial system S τ can keep perpetually parallel to the axes of the inertial system S 0 if, and only if, the origin of coordinates of Σ moves in a constant direction as seen from S 0 , i. e. if its acceleration has a constant direction, although it is not necessarily constant in magnitude. Therefore, the assumption that the acceleration of Σ has a constant direction is necessary for assumption A3 to be consistent. If, on the contrary, the spatial direction of proper acceleration is variable (as seen from S 0 ), then a c cannot keep parallel to n c ⊥ and, by (43),Ṙ l j = 0 . Hence, according to the inertial system S 0 , the spatial axes e a (j) -that by A4' coincide with those of S τ -undergo a rotational motion which is known as Thomas precession [6] -see the Appendix for details.

Conclusion
We have studied the uniformly accelerated reference systems introduced by Einstein [1] when attempting to enlarge his theory of relativity to abide non-inertial systems of reference, in what would be the starting point of his path to his general theory of relativity. We have analyzed the list of assumptions in which Einstein's construct is based and, using the vantage point provided by the spacetime formalism, we have proved that Einstein's uniformly accelerated systems are a particular instance of Fermi-Walker coordinate systems [5], [8], namely when the proper acceleration of the origin of coordinates is constant both in direction and magnitude. We have then examined the set of assumptions in which the Einstein reasoning is based and have found that some of them are partially redundant. Particularly the assumption that at every moment it exists an instantaneously comoving inertial system -assumption A4'-is a very restrictive postulate which unavoidably leads to Fermi-Walker coordinate systems. It is actually so strong that, as proved in section 4.1, it gets in conflict with the assumption of perpetual parallelism of spatial axes (A3), unless the condition of one-directional proper acceleration is added (A3), as Einstein's construct does by the way. We show that the possibility of conflict among both assumptions, namely the existence an instantaneously comoving reference system and that the spatial axes keep perpetually parallel, lies in what is known as Thomas precession [6].
Using now the 3-velocity v i and the 3-acceleration b j of the origin of Σ with respect to the inertial system S 0 , we have that (we take c = 1) which, combined with (47) and substituted in (46), yields or, in an obvious 3-vector notation, where ω = ω 1 ,ω 2 ,ω 3 and so on.
