Precision tests with a new class of dedicated ether-drift experiments

M. Consoli, E. Costanzo

In principle, by accepting the idea of a non-zero vacuum energy, the physical vacuum of present particle physics might represent a preferred reference frame. By treating this quant…

Flat-space picture of gravity vs. General Relativity: a precision test for present ether-drift experiments

M. Consoli, E. Costanzo

Modern ether-drift experiments in vacuum could in principle detect the tiny refractive index that, in a flat-space picture of gravity, is appropriate for an apparatus placed on the…

Is the physical vacuum a preferred frame ?

M. Consoli, E. Costanzo

It is generally assumed that the physical vacuum of particle physics should be characterized by an energy momentum tensor in such a way to preserve exact Lorentz invariance. On the…

An easy reading of modern ether-drift experiments

M. Consoli, E. Costanzo

Modern ether-drift experiments look for a preferred reference frame searching for modulations of the beat note of two optical resonators that might be induced by the Earth's rotati…

An effective vacuum refractive index from gravity and the present ether-drift experiments

M. Consoli, E. Costanzo

Re-analyzing the data published by the Berlin and Duesseldorf ether-drift experiments, we have found a clean non-zero daily average for the amplitude of the signal. The two experim…

Motion toward the Great Attractor from an ether-drift experiment

M. Consoli, E. Costanzo, V. Palmisano

Since the end of 80's, the region of sky of galactic coordinates (l\sim 309^o, b\sim 18^o), corresponding to a declination γ\sim -44^o and right ascension α\sim 202^o, usually deno…
