New upper limit from terrestrial equivalence principle test for extended rotating bodies
/ Abstract
An improved terrestrial experiment to test the equivalence principle for rotating extended bodies is presented, and a new upper limit for the violation of the equivalence principle is obtained at the level of 1.6x10(-7), which is limited by the friction of the rotating gyroscope. This means that the spin-gravity interaction between the extended bodies has not been observed at this level.
