What to expect from scalar-tensor space geodesy

Hugo Lévy, Joël Bergé, Jean-Philippe Uzan

Scalar-tensor theories with screening mechanisms come with non-linearities that make it difficult to study setups of complex geometry without resorting to numerical simulations. In…

Solving nonlinear Klein-Gordon equations on unbounded domains via the Finite Element Method

Hugo Lévy, Joël Bergé, Jean-Philippe Uzan

A large class of scalar-tensor theories of gravity exhibit a screening mechanism that dynamically suppresses fifth forces in the Solar system and local laboratory experiments. Tech…

Constraints on chameleon gravity from the measurement of the electrostatic stiffness of the MICROSCOPE mission accelerometers

Martin Pernot-Borràs, Joël Bergé, Philippe Brax +4

This article is dedicated to the use the MICROSCOPE mission's data to test chameleon theory of gravity. We take advantage of the technical sessions aimed to characterize the electr…

MICROSCOPE's constraint on a short-range fifth force

Joel Bergé, Martin Pernot-Borràs, Jean-Philippe Uzan +5

The MICROSCOPE experiment was designed to test the weak equivalence principle in space, by comparing the low-frequency dynamics of cylindrical "free-falling" test masses controlled…

MICROSCOPE mission: Statistics and impact of glitches on the test of the weak equivalence principle

Joel Bergé, Quentin Baghi, Alain Robert +6

MICROSCOPE's space test of the weak equivalence principle (WEP) is based on the minute measurement of the difference of accelerations experienced by two test masses as they orbit t…

MICROSCOPE mission: Data analysis principle

Joel Bergé, Quentin Baghi, Emilie Hardy +10

After performing highly sensitive acceleration measurements during two years of drag-free flight around the Earth, MICROSCOPE provided the best constraint on the Weak Equivalence P…
