摘要
A concept of testing the equivalence principle with optical readout in space(TEPO)has been proposed[J.Jpn.Soc.Microgravity Appl.25(2008)423].We further discuss the feasibility of TEPO using LISA(laser interferometer space antenna)Pathfinder technologies,such as a heterodyne interferometer,an inertial sensor,drag-free control and discharge technique,and determine that the equivalence principle could be tested at 8×10^(−17) with one day integration.
