We report on the comparison between three absolute gravimeters that took place in April 2010 at Laboratoire National de M\'etrologie et d'Essais. The three instruments (FG5#209 from METAS, Switzerland, IMGC-02 from INRIM, Italy, and CAG…

In this work, we discuss the possibility of inertial sensing with positronium in the $2^3 S$ metastable state for the measurement of optical dipole, relativistic and gravitational forces on a purely leptonic matter-antimatter system.…

The fundamental building blocks of the proton, quarks and gluons, have been known for decades. However, we still have an incomplete theoretical and experimental understanding of how these particles and their dynamics give rise to the…

The combination of GR and the Standard Model disagrees with numerous observations on scales from our Solar System up. In the concordance model of cosmology, these contradictions are removed or alleviated by the introduction of three…

In some baryogenesis scenarios, the universe acquires a non-vanishing average baryonic charge, but the baryon to photon ratio is not spatially constant and can be even negative in some space regions. This allows for existence of lumps of…
