Talk Title |
Tests of General Relativity with Pulsar-White Dwarf Binary Systems |
Abstract |
In this talk, I will emphasize some of the recent tests of general relativity with pulsar-white dwarf binaries, which have been especially constraining for several classes of alternative theories of gravity. I will then concentrate on some goals for the near future with these experiments: improving the precision of the tests themselves, improving limits on violation of Lorentz invariance of gravity, and improving the quality of the mass measurements of the neutron stars. |
