Tests of fundamental physics in space
COFFEE_KLATCH · Invited
Abstract
Precision measurements in the solar system and beyond offer a promising testing ground for fundamental physics. In this talk, I present a review of recent work on precision tests of spacetime symmetries using planetary ephemeris, pulsar timing, and high-energy cosmic rays. The measurements are analyzed using an effective field theory framework that offers a systematic description of generic violations of spacetime symmetries, in particular Lorentz and CPT symmetry.
