Test of Time Dilation Using Stored Li+ Ions as Clocks at Relativistic Speed
, 2014 We present the concluding result from an Ives-Stilwell-type time dilation experiment using 7Li+ ions confined at a velocity of beta = v/c = 0.338 in the storage ring ESR at Darmstadt. A Lambda-type three-level system within the hyperfine structure of the

How to Foster Scientists' Creativity [PDF]
, 2016 Scientific progress can be credited to creative scientists, who constantly ideate new theories and experiments. I explore how the three central positions in philosophy of science – scientific realism, scientific pessimism, and instrumentalism – are ...

Constraining the Mass of the Photon with Gamma-Ray Bursts
, 2016 One of the cornerstones of modern physics is Einstein's special relativity, with its constant speed of light and zero photon mass assumptions. Constraint on the rest mass m_{\gamma} of photons is a fundamental way to test Einstein's theory, as well as ...

OPTIS - a satellite-based test of Special and General Relativity [PDF]
, 2001 A new satellite based test of Special and General Relativity is proposed. For the Michelson-Morley experiment we expect an improvement of at least three orders of magnitude, and for the Kennedy-Thorndike experiment an improvement of more than one order ...

Test of Special Relativity from K Physics [PDF]
Phys.Lett. B421 (1998) 105-108, 1997 A breakdown of the Local Lorentz Invariance and hence the special theory of relativity in the Kaon system can, in principle, induce oscillations between the $K^0$ and $\bar{K}^0$ states. We construct a general formulation in which simultaneous pairwise diagonalization of mass, momentum and weak eigenstates is not assumed and the maximum attainable ...

Entropy and temperature of black holes in a gravity's rainbow [PDF]
, 2006 The linear relation between the entropy and area of a black hole can be derived from the Heisenberg principle, the energy-momentum dispersion relation of special relativity, and general considerations about black holes.

Realism And Empirical Evidence [PDF]
, 1997 We define realism using a slightly modified version of the EPR criterion of reality. This version is strong enough to show that relativity is incomplete.

On reaction thresholds in doubly special relativity [PDF]
Phys.Rev. D69 (2004) 105016, 2003 Two theories of special relativity with an additional invariant scale, "doubly special relativity" (DSR), are tested with calculations of particle process kinematics. Using the Judes-Visser modified conservation laws, thresholds are studied in both theories.
