[HTML][HTML] Modern tests of lorentz invariance

D Mattingly - Living Reviews in relativity, 2005 - Springer
Motivated by ideas about quantum gravity, a tremendous amount of effort over the past
decade has gone into testing Lorentz invariance in various regimes. This review …

Experimental tests of general relativity

SG Turyshev - Annual Review of Nuclear and Particle Science, 2008 - annualreviews.org
Einstein's general theory of relativity is the standard theory of gravity, especially where the

The mass of the photon

LC Tu, J Luo, GT Gillies - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2004 - iopscience.iop.org
Because classical Maxwellian electromagnetism has been one of the cornerstones of
physics during the past century, experimental tests of its foundations are always of …

Test of relativistic time dilation with fast optical atomic clocks at different velocities

S Reinhardt, G Saathoff, H Buhr, LA Carlson, A Wolf… - Nature Physics, 2007 - nature.com
Time dilation is one of the most fascinating aspects of special relativity as it abolishes the
notion of absolute time. It was first observed experimentally by Ives and Stilwell in 1938 …

Cold atom clock test of Lorentz invariance in the matter sector

P Wolf, F Chapelet, S Bize, A Clairon - Physical review letters, 2006 - APS
We report on a new experiment that tests for a violation of Lorentz invariance (LI), by
searching for a dependence of atomic transition frequencies on the orientation of the spin of …

Vacuum Čerenkov Radiation in Lorentz-Violating Theories Without Violation

B Altschul - Physical review letters, 2007 - APS
In theories with broken Lorentz symmetry, Čerenkov radiation may be possible even in
vacuum. We analyze the Čerenkov emissions that are associated with the least constrained …
