[HTML][HTML] The confrontation between general relativity and experiment

CM Will - Living reviews in relativity, 2014 - Springer
The status of experimental tests of general relativity and of theoretical frameworks for
analyzing them is reviewed and updated. Einstein's equivalence principle (EEP) is well …

[HTML][HTML] Varying constants, gravitation and cosmology

JP Uzan - Living reviews in relativity, 2011 - Springer
Fundamental constants are a cornerstone of our physical laws. Any constant varying in
space and/or time would reflect the existence of an almost massless field that couples to …

Demonstration of a trapped-ion atomic clock in space

EA Burt, JD Prestage, RL Tjoelker, DG Enzer, D Kuang… - Nature, 2021 - nature.com
Atomic clocks, which lock the frequency of an oscillator to the extremely stable quantized
energy levels of atoms, are essential for navigation applications such as deep space …

Carrier-envelope phase control of femtosecond mode-locked lasers and direct optical frequency synthesis

DJ Jones, SA Diddams, JK Ranka, A Stentz… - Science, 2000 - science.org
We stabilized the carrier-envelope phase of the pulses emitted by a femtosecond mode-
locked laser by using the powerful tools of frequency-domain laser stabilization. We …

Nobel Lecture: Manipulating atoms with photons

CN Cohen-Tannoudji - Reviews of Modern Physics, 1998 - APS
Electromagnetic interactions play a central role in low energy physics. They are responsible
for the cohesion of atoms and molecules and they are at the origin of the emission and …

The fundamental constants and their variation: observational and theoretical status

JP Uzan - Reviews of modern physics, 2003 - APS
This article describes the various experimental bounds on the variation of the fundamental
constants of nature. After a discussion of the role of fundamental constants, their definition …

[图书][B] Scalar-Tensor Gravity

V Faraoni, V Faraoni - 2004 - Springer
Nature's simplest field, the scalar field, has been the protagonist of physical theories for a
long time. Even before the publication of the theory of general relativity G. Nordström …

A molecular elevator

JD Badjic, V Balzani, A Credi, S Silvi, JF Stoddart - Science, 2004 - science.org
We report the incrementally staged design, synthesis, characterization, and operation of a
molecular machine that behaves like a nanoscale elevator. The operation of this device …

Searching for an oscillating massive scalar field as a dark matter candidate using atomic hyperfine frequency comparisons

A Hees, J Guéna, M Abgrall, S Bize, P Wolf - Physical review letters, 2016 - APS
We use 6 yrs of accurate hyperfine frequency comparison data of the dual rubidium and
caesium cold atom fountain FO2 at LNE-SYRTE to search for a massive scalar dark matter …

Violation of the equivalence principle from light scalar dark matter

A Hees, O Minazzoli, E Savalle, YV Stadnik, P Wolf - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
In this paper, we study the local observational consequences of a violation of the Einstein
equivalence principle induced by models of light scalar dark matter (DM). We focus on two …
