Casimir Effect : Theory and Experiments
Astrid Lambrecht, Serge Reynaud
The Casimir effect is a crucial prediction of Quantum Field Theory which has fascinating connections with open questions in fundamental physics. The ideal formula written by Casimi…
Measuring the absolute non-gravitational acceleration of a spacecraft: goals, devices, methods, performances
Benjamin Lenoir, Bruno Christophe, Serge Reynaud
Space provides unique opportunities to test gravitation. By using an interplanetary spacecraft as a test mass, it is possible to test General Relativity at the Solar System distanc…
Atom interferometry and the Einstein equivalence principle
Peter Wolf, Luc Blanchet, Christian J. Bordé +3
The computation of the phase shift in a symmetric atom interferometer in the presence of a gravitational field is reviewed. The difference of action-phase integrals between the two…
Casimir Effect : Optomechanics in Quantum Vacuum
Astrid Lambrecht, Serge Reynaud
The Casimir effect results from the optomechanical coupling between field fluctuations and mirrors in quantum vacuum. This contribution to the 20th International Conference on Lase…
Electrostatic accelerometer with bias rejection for deep space gravitation tests
Benjamin Lenoir, Bruno Christophe, Serge Reynaud
The trajectory of an interplanetary spacecraft can be used to test gravitation in the Solar System. Its determination relies on radio tracking and is limited by the uncertainty on…
Tests of gravity at the solar system scale
Marc-Thierry Jaekel, Serge Reynaud
As confirmed by tests performed in the solar system, General Relativity (GR) presently represents the best description of gravitation. It is however challenged by observations at v…
