Relativity and Fundamental Physics
This Topical Team supports the exploitation of the ACES mission for fundamental physics tests by assisting both during the preparation phase and after the ACES launch in coordination with the ACES Project Scientist and the ACES science team members. More generally, this Topical Team shall address space tests of the Einstein’s Equivalence Principle based on precision measurements: both atomic sensors (atomic clocks, matter wave interferometers, etc.) and classical instruments (acceleration sensing, laser ranging, etc.).
