Inertia
Abstract
Inertia of a particle is due to its mass as well as intrinsic spin. The latter is revealed via the coupling of intrinsic spin with rotation. The spin-rotation coupling and the concomitant spin-gravity coupling are discussed in connection with the nature of inertia. The spin-rotation-gravity coupling leads to a gravitomagnetic Stern-Gerlach type of force on the particle that is independent of the particle's mass and thus violates the universality of free fall. This effect is extremely small and its measurement is beyond present capabilities.
