PROBING THE LIGHT SPEED ANISOTROPY WITH RESPECT TO THE COSMIC MICROWAVE BACKGROUND RADIATION DIPOLE
2005
We have studied the angular fluctuations in the
speedof
lightwith respect to the apex of the dipole of
Cosmic Microwave Background(CMB) radiation using the experimental data obtained with GRAAL facility, located at the European
Synchrotron RadiationFacility (ESRF) in Grenoble. The measurements were based on the stability of the
Compton edgeof laser photons scattered on the 6 GeV
monochromaticelectron beam. The results enable one to obtain a conservative constraint on the anisotropy in the light speed variations Δc(θ)/c<3×10-12, i.e. with higher precision than from previous experiments.
