Small-eccentricity binary pulsars and relativistic gravity
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
Small-eccentricity binary pulsars with white dwarf companions provide excellent test laboratories for various effects predicted by alternative theories of gravity, in particular tests for the emission of gravitational dipole radiation and the existence of gravitational Stark effects. We will present new limits to these effects. The statistical analysis presented here, for the first time, takes appropriately care of selection effects.
