Abstract
We consider three possible manifestations of physics beyond the Standard Model, and the relations among them. These are Lorentz non-invariance (LNI), violations of the Weak Equivalence Principle (WEP), and indications of time-varying nuclear decay constants. We present preliminary results from a new experiment indicating the presence of annual and subannual periodicities in decay data, and discuss their implications for physics beyond the Standard Model.
