Testing Modified Gravity Theories with Numerical Solutions of the External Field Effect in Rotationally Supported Galaxies
Kyu-Hyun Chae, Federico Lelli, Harry Desmond +2
The strong equivalence principle is violated by gravity theories of Milgromian dynamics (MOND) through the action of the external field effect. We test two different Lagrangian the…
Constraints on Equivalence Principle Violation from Gamma Ray Bursts
Deaglan J. Bartlett, Dexter Bergsdal, Harry Desmond +2
Theories of gravity that obey the Weak Equivalence Principle have the same Parametrised Post-Newtonian parameter for all particles at all energies. The large Shapiro time delay…
Calibrating galaxy formation effects in galactic tests of fundamental physics
Deaglan J. Bartlett, Harry Desmond, Pedro G. Ferreira
Galactic scale tests have proven to be powerful tools in constraining fundamental physics in previously under-explored regions of parameter space. The astrophysical regime which th…
A 5% measurement of the gravitational constant in the Large Magellanic Cloud
Harry Desmond, Jeremy Sakstein, Bhuvnesh Jain
We perform a novel test of General Relativity by measuring the gravitational constant in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). The LMC contains six well-studied Cepheid variable stars…
The dependence of subhalo abundance matching on galaxy photometry and selection criteria
Richard Stiskalek, Harry Desmond, Thomas Holvey +1
Subhalo abundance matching (SHAM) is a popular technique for assigning galaxy mass or luminosity to haloes produced in N-body simulations. The method works by matching the cumulati…
Testing the Strong Equivalence Principle: Detection of the External Field Effect in Rotationally Supported Galaxies
Kyu-Hyun Chae, Federico Lelli, Harry Desmond +3
The strong equivalence principle (SEP) distinguishes General Relativity from other viable theories of gravity. The SEP demands that the internal dynamics of a self-gravitating syst…
