1.
The combined effect of second order Doppler shift
(equivalent to time dilation) and gravitational red shift
phenomena cause the clock to run fast by 38 s per day.
2.
The residual orbital eccentricity causes a sinusoidal variation
over one revolution between the time readings of the
satellite clock and the time registered by a similar clock on
the ground. This effect has typically a peak-to-peak
amplitude of 60 - 90 ns.
3.
The Sagnac effect – for a receiver at rest on the equator is
133 ns, it may be larger for moving receivers.
4.
At the sub-nanosecond level additional corrections apply,
including the contribution from Earth’s oblateness, tidal
effects, the Shapiro time delay, and other post Newtonian
effects.

Gravitational Red Shift
[Credit: Clifford M. Will ]
Selected tests of local position
invariance via gravitational redshift
experiments, showing bounds on 
which measures degree of deviation
of redshift from the Einstein formula.
In null redshift experiments, the
bound is on the difference in 
between different kinds of clocks.

The PPN Formalism: the postulates
•
A global coordinate frame x  (ct, x)
•
A metric tensor g (ct, x |  ,  ,  ,...) with 10 potentials and 10
parameters
 - curvature of space (= 1 in GR)

- non-linearity of gravity (=1 in GR)

- preferred location effects (=0 in GR)
1 ,  2 , 3 - preferred frame effects (=0 in GR)
 1 ,  2 ,  3 ,  4 - violation of the linear momentum conservation (=0 in GR)
•
Stress-energy tensor: a perfect fluid
•
Stress-energy tensor is conserved (“comma goes to semicolon” rule)
•
Test particles move along geodesics
•
Maxwell equations are derived under assumption that the principle of
equivalence is valid (“comma goes to semicolon” rule)
EFT Wokshop, Pittsburg, July 2007
12
The PPN Formalism: the difficulties
• The structure of the metric tensor in arbitrary coordinates is known
only in one (global) coordinate system
• Gauge-invariance is not preserved
• Oservables and gravitational variables are disentangled
• PPN parameters are gauge-dependent
• PPN formalism derives equations of motion of test point particles
under assumption that the weak principle of equivalence is valid but
it does not comply with the existence of the Nordtvedt effect
• PPN is limited to the first post-Newtonian approximation

The null-cone bi-characteristic interaction of
gravity and light in general relativity
Any of the Petrov-type gravity field obeys the principle of causality, so that
even the slowly evolving "Coulomb component" of planet’s gravity field can
not transfer information about the planetary position with the speed faster than
the speed of light (Kopeikin, ApJ Lett., 556, 1, 2001).

Measured with 20% of accuracy, thus, proving
that the null cone is a bi-characteristic
hypersurface (speed of gravity = speed of light)
10 microarcseconds = the width of a typical strand
of a human hair from a distance of 650 miles.
The Pioneer Anomaly
The anomaly is seen in radio Doppler and ranging data, yielding information on the
velocity and distance of the spacecraft. When all known forces acting on the
spacecraft are taken into consideration, a very small but unexplained force remains.
It causes a constant sunward acceleration of (8.74 ± 1.33) × 10−10 m/s2 for both
Pioneer spacecrafts.

The gauge modes in EIH equations
of a three-body problem:
• “Newtonian-like” transformation of the EinsteinInfeld-Hoffman (EIH) force
u t
wi  xi  xBi (t )
• This suppresses all gauge modes in the
coordinate transformation from the global to
local frame but they all appear in the geocentric
EIH equations as spurious relativistic forces
EFT Wokshop, Pittsburg, July 2007
33
Are the gauge modes
observable?
• Einstein: no – they do not present in observational data
• LLR team (Murphy, Nordtvedt, Turyshev, PRL 2007)
– yes – the “gravitomagnetic” modes are observable
• Kopeikin, S., PRL., 98, 229001 (2007)
The LLR technique involves processing data with two
sets of mathematical equations, one related to the
motion of the moon around the earth, and the other
related to the propagation of the laser beam from earth
to the moon. These equations can be written in different
ways based on "gauge freedom“, the idea that arbitrary
coordinates can be used to describe gravitational
physics. The gauge freedom of the LLR technique shows
that the manipulation of the mathematical equations is
causing JPL scientists to derive results that are not
apparent in the data itself.

Extreme Gravity: detecting black hole
with pulsar timing (Wex & Kopeikin, ApJ, 1999)
– Timing of a binary pulsar allows us to measure the
quadrupolar-field and spin-orbit-coupling
perturbations caused by the presence of the pulsar’s
companion
– Since these perturbations have different orbitalphase dependence, one can measure the
quadrupole and the spin of the companion
– Black hole physics predicts a unique relationship
between the spin and the quadrupole because of the
“no-hair theorem”
– Comparision of the mesured value of spin against the
quadrupole allows us to see if the companion is a
black hole and explore the black hole physics
