Abstract

We perform post Newtonian analysis of Double Field Theory as a test of string theory in gravitational sector against observations. We identify the Eddington--Robertson--Schiff parameters βPPN\beta_{{{\rm{PPN}}}}, γPPN\gamma_{{{\rm{PPN}}}} with the charges of electric HH-flux and dilaton respectively, and further relate them to stress-energy tensor. We show βPPN=1{\beta_{{{\rm{PPN}}}}=1} from weak energy condition and argue that the observation of γPPN1\gamma_{{{\rm{PPN}}}}\simeq 1 signifies the ultrarelativistic equation of state in baryons, or the suppression of gluon condensate.
