Concerning impact of the quantum vacuum on orbits of planets
arXiv:1909.02598 · doi:10.1007/s10509-019-3665-2
Abstract
We point out serious shortcomings of a very recent article (Iorio in Astrophys. Space Sci. 364:126, 2019) wrongly claiming that the current precision with which we know orbits of planets in the Solar System rules out the possibility of gravitational polarization of the quantum vacuum. The main mistake is that the Sun and a planet are considered as an isolated binary system completely neglecting the existence of other planets and their crucial contribution to the gravitational polarization of the quantum vacuum.
