Test of the equivalence principle from neutrino oscillation experiments.
We consider the hypothesis that neutrino oscillation data can be explained if the gravitational couplings of (massless or degenerate mass) neutrinos are flavour non–diagonal, in violation of the equivalence principle. We analyze the various neutrino oscillation laboratory experimental data including the recent LSND observations to constrain the relevant parameter space. We find that there is no...
متن کاملSpace-Time Foam may Violate the Principle of Equivalence
The interactions of different particle species with the foamy space-time fluctuations expected in quantum gravity theories may not be universal, in which case different types of energetic particles may violate Lorentz invariance by varying amounts, violating the equivalence principle. We illustrate this possibility in two different models of space-time foam based on D-particle fluctuations in e...
متن کاملSpace-Time Variation of Physical Constants and the Equivalence Principle
Location-dependence of physical parameters such as the electromagnetic fine structure constant and Newton’s G produce body accelerations which violate universality of free fall rates testable with laboratory and space experiments. Theoretically related cosmological time variation of these same parameters are also constrained by experiments such as lunar laser ranging, and these time variations ...
متن کاملThe Solar Test of the Equivalence Principle
The Earth, Mars, Sun, Jupiter system allows for a sensitive test of the strong equivalence principle (SEP) which is qualitatively different from that provided by Lunar Laser Ranging. Using analytic and numerical methods we demonstrate that Earth-Mars ranging can provide a useful estimate of the SEP parameter η. Two estimates of the predicted accuracy are derived and quoted, one based on convent...
متن کاملA Test of a Kind of the Equivalence Principle by Long-baseline Neutrino-oscillation Experiments
In this talk I discuss neutrino oscillations due to possible nonuniversality of the gravitational coupling constants. It has been pointed out [1] [2] that a breakdown of the universality of the gravitational couplings to different neutrino flavors could lead to neutrino oscillations. In particular the authors of [2] studied the possibility in which the solar neutrinos can be used to test this k...
