Under the standard model extension (SME) framework, Lorentz invariance is tested in five binary pulsars: PSR J0737-3039, PSR B 1534+12, PSR J1756-2251, PSR B1913+16 and PSR B2127+11C.

By analyzing the advance of periastron, we obtain the constraints on a dimensionless combination of SME parameters that is sen- sitive to timing observations. The results imply no evidence for the break of Lorentz invariance at the 10-l level, one order of magnitude larger than the previous estima- tion.展开更多
We obtain preliminary limits on a logarithmic correction to the Newtonian gravitational potential by using five binary pulsars: PSR J0737-3039, PSR B 1534+12, PSR J 1756-2251, PSR B 1913+ 16 and PSR B2127+ 11C.

This kind of correction may originate from fundamental frameworks, like string theories, effective models of grav- ity due to quantum effects and the non-local gravity scheme. We estimate the upper limit of the Tohline-Kuhn-Kruglyak parameter A and the lower limit of the Fabris- Campos parameter α, which parameterize the correction and are connected to each other by αλ = -1. By analyzing the advances of periastron of these binary pulsars, we find that the preliminary upper limit of a is 0.19 ± 0.14 kpc^-1 and the prelimi- nary lower limit of ), is -5.2 4± 3.8 kpc. They are compatible with the bounds based on dynamics of spiral galaxies but quite different from those given by solar system dynamics. These results indicate that this logarithmic correction might be more ob- servable in current timings of binary pulsars than in motions of the solar system.展开更多
