Testing Relativity with Orbiting Oscillators

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-11-10 v1

Abstract

Clock-comparison experiments using a satellite platform can give Planck-scale sensitivity to many parameters for Lorentz and CPT violation that are difficult to measure on Earth. A discussion of the theoretical framework for such tests is given, with emphasis on comparisons of output frequencies of atomic clocks and of electromagnetic cavity oscillators.
