摘要
This paper proposes a strategy for detecting the presence of a gravito-magnetic field due to the rotation of the galactic dark halo. Visible matter in galaxies rotates and dark matter, supposed to form a halo incorporating baryonic matter, rotates also, since it interacts gravitationally with the rest. Pursuing the same line of reasoning, dark matter should produce all gravitational effects predicted by general relativity, including a gravito-magnetic field. I discuss a possible strategy for measuring that field. The idea recovers the old Sagnac effect and proposes to use a triangle having three Lagrange points of the Sun Earth pair at its vertices. The asymmetry in the times of flight along the loop in opposite directions is proportional to the gravito-magnetic galactic field.
