Probing Relativity Using Space-based Experiments *
An overview of space tests searching for small deviations from special relativity arising at the Planck scale is given. Potential high-sensitivity space-based experiments include ones with atomic clocks, masers, and electromagnetic cavities. We show that a significant portion of the coefficient space in the Standard-Model Extension, a framework that covers the full spectrum of possible effects,...
متن کاملProbing Models of Quantum Space–Time Foam
We review the possibility that quantum fluctuations in the structure of space-time at the Planck scale might be subject to experimental probes. We study the effects of space-time foam in an approach inspired by string theory, in which solitonic D-brane excitations are taken into account when considering the ground state. We model the properties of this medium by analyzing the recoil of a D part...
متن کاملSpectral probing of impact-generated vapor in laboratory experiments
High-speed spectra of hypervelocity impacts at the NASA Ames Vertical Gun Range (AVGR) captured the rapidly evolving conditions of impact-generated vapor as a function of impact angle, viewpoint, and time (within the first 50 ls). Impact speeds possible at the AVGR (<7 km/s) are insufficient to induce significant vaporization in silicates, other than the high-temperature (but low-mass) jetting ...
متن کاملFree-space quantum network with trusted relay
Nowadays, information security plays an increasingly important role in global communication. Quantum cryptography [1, 2], particularly quantum key distribution (QKD), offers means to expand a secure key between two distant parties, whose security is stemmed from the fundamental laws of quantum mechanics [3–5]. In practice, QKD experiments have been demonstrated over longdistance optical links t...
متن کاملFree-space quantum key distribution
Quantum cryptography was introduced in the mid1980s [1] as a new method for generating the shared, secret random number sequences, or cryptographic keys, that are used in crypto-systems to provide communications security. The appeal of quantum cryptography is that its security is based on laws of Nature, in contrast to existing methods of key distribution that derive their security from the per...
