Constraining the angular momentum of the Sun with planetary orbital motions and general relativity

Lorenzo Iorio

The angular momentum of a star is an important astrophysical quantity related to its internal structure, formation and evolution. On average, helioseismology yields S = 1.92 10^41…

Constraining the electric charges of some astronomical bodies in Reissner-Nordstrom spacetimes and generic r^-2-type power-law potentials from orbital motions

Lorenzo Iorio

We put model-independent, dynamical constraints on the net electric charge Q of some astronomical and astrophysical objects by assuming that their exterior spacetimes are described…

Model-independent constraints on r^-3 extra-interactions from orbital motions

Lorenzo Iorio

Long-range constraints on the AdS radius of curvature L in the Randall-Sundrum (RS) braneworld model are inferred from orbital motions of well known artificial and natural bodies.…

Impact of a Pioneer/Rindler-type acceleration on the Oort cloud

Lorenzo Iorio

According to a recent modified model of gravity at large distances, a radial constant and uniform extra-acceleration A_Rin of Rindler type acts upon a test particle p in the static…

Constraints from orbital motions around the Earth of the environmental fifth-force hypothesis for the OPERA superluminal neutrino phenomenology

Lorenzo Iorio

It has been recently suggested by Dvali and Vikman that the superluminal neutrino phenomenology of the OPERA experiment may be due to an environmental feature of the Earth, natural…

Observational constraints on spatial anisotropy of G from orbital motions

Lorenzo Iorio

A phenomenological anisotropic variation ΔG/G of the Newtonian gravitational coupling parameter G, if real, would affect the orbital dynamics of a two-body gravitationally bound sy…

Orbital effects of the time-dependent component of the Pioneer anomaly

Lorenzo Iorio

We work out the impact that the recently determined time-dependent component of the Pioneer Anomaly (PA), interpreted as an additional exotic acceleration of gravitational origin w…

Perturbed stellar motions around the rotating black hole in Sgr A* for a generic orientation of its spin axis

Lorenzo Iorio

Empirically determining the averaged variations of the orbital parameters of the stars orbiting the Supermassive Black Hole (SBH) hosted by the Galactic Centre (GC) in Sgr A* is, i…

On the anomalous increase of the lunar eccentricity

Lorenzo Iorio

Possible explanations of the recently reported anomalous increase of the eccentricity of the lunar orbit are sought in terms of classical Newtonian mechanics, general relativity, a…

Some considerations on the present-day results for the detection of frame-dragging after the final outcome of GP-B

Lorenzo Iorio

The cancelation of the first even zonal harmonic coefficient J2 of the multipolar expansion of the Newtonian part of the Earth's gravitational potential from the linear combination…

On Some Critical Issues of the LAGEOS-Based Tests of the Lense-Thirring Effect

L. Iorio

We summarize some critical issues pertaining the tests of the general relativistic Lense-Thirring effect performed by I. Ciufolini and coworkers in the gravitational field of the E…

LETSGO: A spacecraft-based mission to accurately measure the solar angular momentum with frame-dragging

Lorenzo Iorio

LETSGO (LEnse-Thirring Sun-Geo Orbiter) is a proposed space-based mission involving the use of a spacecraft moving along a highly eccentric heliocentric orbit perpendicular to the…

Orbital effects of non-isotropic mass depletion of the atmospheres of evaporating hot Jupiters in extrasolar systems

Lorenzo Iorio

We analytically and numerically investigate the long-term, i.e. averaged over one full revolution, orbital effects of the non-isotropic percent mass loss \dot m/m experienced by se…

On the anomalous secular increase of the eccentricity of the orbit of the Moon

Lorenzo Iorio

A recent analysis of a Lunar Laser Ranging (LLR) data record spanning 38.7 yr revealed an anomalous increase of the eccentricity of the lunar orbit amounting to de/dt_meas = (9 +/-…

Constraints on the location of a putative distant massive body in the Solar System from recent planetary data

Lorenzo Iorio

We analytically work out the long-term variations caused on the motion of a planet orbiting a star by a very distant, pointlike massive object X. Apart from the semi-major axis a,…
