Weak Equivalence Principle Test on a Sounding Rocket
James D. Phillips, Bijunath R. Patla, Eugeniu M. Popescu +4
SR-POEM, our principle of equivalence measurement on a sounding rocket, will compare the free fall rate of two substances yielding an uncertainty of E-16 in the estimate of η. Duri…
Higher Gauge Theory and Gravity in (2+1) Dimensions
R. B. Mann, Eugeniu M. Popescu
Non-abelian higher gauge theory has recently emerged as a generalization of standard gauge theory to higher dimensional (2-dimensional in the present context) connection forms, and…
Scalar and tensorial topological matter coupled to (2+1)-dimensional gravity:A.Classical theory and global charges
R. B. Mann, E. M. Popescu
We consider the coupling of scalar topological matter to (2+1)-dimensional gravity. The matter fields consist of a 0-form scalar field and a 2-form tensor field. We carry out a can…
Canonical analysis of the BCEA topological matter model coupled to gravitation in (2+1) dimensions
Laurent Freidel, R. B. Mann, Eugeniu M. Popescu
We consider a topological field theory derived from the Chern - Simons action in (2+1) dimensions with the I(ISO(2,1)) group,and we investigate in detail the canonical structure of…
