Abstract
This abstract summarizes our poster contribution to the conference. We study the properties of an axially symmetric stationary gravitational field, by considering the spacetime properties of an uniformly rotating frame and the Einstein's Equivalence Principle (EEP). To undertake this, the weak field and slow-rotation limit of the kerr metric are determined, by making a first-order perturbation to the metric of a rotating frame. Also, we show a local connection between the effects of centrifugal and Coriolis forces with the effects of an axially symmetric stationary weak gravitational field, by calculating the geodesic equations of a free particle. It is observed that these geodesic, applying the (EEP), are locally equivalent to the geodesic equations of a free particle on a rotating frame. Furthermore, some aditional properties as the Lense-Thirring effect, the Sagnac effect, among others are studied.
