变化的阿尔法:来自季节变化的新约束

Varying Alpha: New Constraints from Seasonal Variations

John D. Barrow, Douglas J. Shaw

摘要:

我们分析了从新的原子钟数据的精细结构“常数”和电子质子质量比的可能的时间变化的约束,并显示它们是如何加强时,太阳的引力场在地球表面的季节性变化被考虑在内。我们比较这些界限与那些可从测试的弱等效原理和高红移观测类星体吸收光谱与时间变化的精细结构常数。

英文摘要:

We analyse the constraints obtained from new atomic clock data on the possible time variation of the fine structure `constant' and the electron-proton mass ratio and show how they are strengthened when the seasonal variation of Sun's gravitational field at the Earth's surface is taken into account. We compare these bounds with those obtainable from tests of the Weak Equivalence Principle and high-redshift observations of quasar absorption spectra consistent with time variations in the fine structure constant.
