Testing the Equivalence Principle using Atomic Vacuum Energy Shifts
C. Alvarez, R. B. Mann
We consider possible tests of the Einstein Equivalence Principle for quantum-mechanical vacuum energies by evaluating the Lamb shift transition in a class of non-metric theories of…
Scalar Wave Falloff in Asymptotically Anti-de Sitter Backgrounds
S. F. J. Chan, R. B. Mann
Conformally invariant scalar waves in black hole spacetimes which are asymptotically anti-de Sitter are investigated. We consider both the -dimensional black hole and $(3+1)…
Exact Solution for the Metric and the Motion of Two Bodies in (1+1) Dimensional Gravity
R. B. Mann, T. Ohta
We present the exact solution of two-body motion in (1+1) dimensional dilaton gravity by solving the constraint equations in the canonical formalism. The determining equation of th…
The Equivalence Principle in the Non-baryonic Regime
C. Alvarez, R. B. Mann
We consider the empirical validity of the equivalence principle for non-baryonic matter. Working in the context of the THεμformalism, we evaluate the constraints experiments place…
Quantum scalar field on three-dimensional (BTZ) black hole instanton: heat kernel, effective action and thermodynamics
Robert B. Mann, Sergey N. Solodukhin
We consider the behaviour of a quantum scalar field on three-dimensional Euclidean backgrounds: Anti-de Sitter space, the regular BTZ black hole instanton and the BTZ instanton wit…
Test of the Equivalence Principle from K Physics
T. Hambye, R. B. Mann, U. Sarkar
A violation of the equivalence principle (VEP) in the Kaon system can, in principle, induce oscillations between and in a manner that need not violat…
