Velocity-Dependent Inverse Cubic Force And Solar System Gravity Tests, Quentin G. Bailey, Daniel Havert Sep 2017

Velocity-Dependent Inverse Cubic Force And Solar System Gravity Tests, Quentin G. Bailey, Daniel Havert

Publications

Higher mass dimension terms in an effective field theory framework for tests of spacetime symmetries are studied. Using a post-Newtonian expansion method, we derive the spacetime metric and the equations of motion for a binary system. This reveals an effective inverse cubic force correction to post-Newtonian general relativity that depends on the velocity of the bodies in the system. The results are studied in the context of laboratory and space-based tests including the effects on solar-system ephemeris, laser ranging observations, and gravimeter tests. This work reveals the coefficient combinations for mass dimension 5 operators controlling CPT violation for gravity that …
