Tests of Lorentz Symmetry in the Gravitational Sector
Universe, 2016 Lorentz symmetry is one of the pillars of both General Relativity and the Standard Model of particle physics. Motivated by ideas about quantum gravity, unification theories and violations of CPT symmetry, a significant effort has been put the last ...

Might the 2PN Perihelion Precession of Mercury Become Measurable in the Next Future?
Universe, 2023 The Hermean average perihelion rate ω˙2PN, calculated to the second post-Newtonian (2PN) order with the Gauss perturbing equations and the osculating Keplerian orbital elements, ranges from −18 to −4 microarcseconds per century μascty−1, depending on the

Frame-Dragging in Extrasolar Circumbinary Planetary Systems
Universe, 2022 Extrasolar circumbinary planets are so called because they orbit two stars instead of just one; to date, an increasing number of such planets have been discovered with a variety of techniques.

The Lense–Thirring Effect on the Galilean Moons of Jupiter
Universe, 2023 The perspectives of detecting the general relativistic gravitomagnetic Lense–Thirring effect on the orbits of the Galilean moons of Jupiter induced by the angular momentum S of the latter are preliminarily investigated.

CONSTRAINING YUKAWA GRAVITY FROM PLANETARY MOTION IN THE SOLAR SYSTEM
Zbornik Radova: Geografski institut "Jovan Cvijić", 2019 In this work we used the observed additional perihelion precession in the Solar System, obtained from the observations of planets and spacecrafts, to study the possible existence of Yukawa correction term to the Newtonian gravitational potential.

Universe, 2023 The new geodetic satellite LARES 2, cousin of LAGEOS and sharing with it almost the same orbital parameters apart from the inclination, displaced by 180 deg, was launched last year. Its proponents suggest using the sum of the nodes of LAGEOS and of LARES

The Flyby Anomaly in an Extended Whitehead’s Theory
Galaxies, 2015 In this paper, we consider an extended version of Whitehead’s theory of gravity in connection with the flyby anomaly. Whitehead’s theory is a linear approximation defined in a background Minkowski spacetime, which gives the same solutions as standard ...

Constraints on Non-Standard Gravitomagnetism by the Anomalous Perihelion Precession of the Planets
Galaxies, 2014 In 2008, a team of astronomers reported an anomalous retrograde precession of the perihelion of Saturn amounting to \(\Delta \dot{\omega}_{\mathrm{SATURN}}=-0.006(2)\) arcsec per century (arcsec cy\(^{-1}\)).

Galaxies, 2014 New analyses of extended data records collected with the Lunar Laser Ranging (LLR) technique performed with improved tidal models were not able to resolve the issue of the anomalous rate e ˙ of the eccentricity e of the orbit of the Moon, which is ...

Frontiers in Physics, 2022 Does a supercurrent drag space-time or generate a gravitational field that can be measured in a laboratory environment? A number of theories suggest that space-time itself could be modeled as a superfluid, so a current of Cooper-pairs might couple to its
