MICROSCOPE mission: first constraints on the violation of the weak equivalence principle by a light scalar dilaton

Joel Bergé, Philippe Brax, Gilles Métris +3

The existence of a light or massive scalar field with a coupling to matter weaker than gravitational strength is a possible source of violation of the weak equivalence principle. W…

Regression analysis with missing data and unknown colored noise: application to the MICROSCOPE space mission

Q. Baghi, G. Métris, J. Bergé +3

The analysis of physical measurements often copes with highly correlated noises and interruptions caused by outliers, saturation events or transmission losses. We assess the impact…
