Test of the Equivalence Principle from K Physics

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

A violation of the equivalence principle (VEP) in the Kaon system can, in principle, induce oscillations between KK^\circ and K\overline{K^\circ} in a manner that need not violate CPT conservation. We show that such a CPT-conserved VEP mechanism could be clearly tested experimentally through the energy dependence of the KLKSK_L-K_S mass difference and discuss constraints imposed by present experiments.
