STE-QUEST - Test of the Universality of Free Fall Using Cold Atom Interferometry

D. Aguilera, H. Ahlers, B. Battelier +63

The theory of general relativity describes macroscopic phenomena driven by the influence of gravity while quantum mechanics brilliantly accounts for microscopic effects. Despite th…

Testing MOND/TEVES with LISA Pathfinder

Christian Trenkel, Steve Kemble, Neil Bevis +1

We suggest that LISA Pathfinder could be used to subject TEVES, and in particular the non-relativistic MOND phenomenology it incorporates, to a direct, controlled experimental test…

MONDian three-body predictions for LISA Pathfinder

Neil Bevis, Joao Magueijo, Christian Trenkel +1

In previous work it was shown that MOND theories predict anomalously strong tidal stresses near the saddle points of the Newtonian gravitational potential. An analytical examinatio…
