Constraining velocity-dependent Lorentz/CPT-violations using Lunar Laser Ranging
英文摘要：
The possibility for Lorentz/CPT-breaking, which is motivated by unification theories, can be systematically tested within the standard-model extension framework. In the pure gravity sector, the mass dimension 5 operators produce new Lorentz and CPT-breaking terms in the 2-body equations of motion that depend on the relative velocity of the bodies. In this Letter, we report new constraints on 15 independent SME coefficients for Lorentz/CPT-violations with mass dimension 5 using lunar laser ranging. We perform a global analysis of lunar ranging data within the SME framework using more than 26,000 normal points between 1969 and 2018. We also perform a jackknife analysis in order to provide realistic estimates of the systematic uncertainties. No deviation from Lorentz/CPT symmetries is reported. In addition, when fitting simultaneously for the 15 canonical SME coefficients for Lorentz/CPT-violations, we improve up to three orders of magnitude previous post-fit constraints from radio pulsars.
