Space test of the Equivalence Principle: first results of the MICROSCOPE mission
Pierre Touboul, Gilles Métris, Manuel Rodrigues +31
The Weak Equivalence Principle (WEP), stating that two bodies of different compositions and/or mass fall at the same rate in a gravitational field (universality of free fall), is a…
A toy model of viscous relativistic geometrically thick disk in Schwarzschild geometry
Sayantani Lahiri, Claus Lämmerzahl
In this earliest study of thick accretion disks with viscosity effects, we construct stationary solutions of a relativistic geometrically thick accretion disk in the Schwarzschild…
The local dark sector. Probing gravitation's low-acceleration frontier and dark matter in the Solar System neighborhood
Joel Bergé, Laura Baudis, Philippe Brax +18
We speculate on the development and availability of new innovative propulsion techniques in the 2040s, that will allow us to fly a spacecraft outside the Solar System (at 150 AU an…
Exploring the Foundations of the Universe with Space Tests of the Equivalence Principle
Baptiste Battelier, Joël Bergé, Andrea Bertoldi +34
We present the scientific motivation for future space tests of the equivalence principle, and in particular the universality of free fall, at the level or better. Two po…
Twin-lattice atom interferometry
Martina Gebbe, Jan-Niclas Siemß, Matthias Gersemann +9
Inertial sensors based on cold atoms have great potential for navigation, geodesy, or fundamental physics. Similar to the Sagnac effect, their sensitivity increases with the space-…
