- Descrição
- A new method of determining the gravitational constant <math>G\,\!</math>, possible equivalence principle violation (measured by the Eotvos parameter <math>\eta\,\!</math> ) and the hypothetic fifth force parameters <math>(\alpha\,\!</math> and <math>\Lambda\,\!</math> ) on board a drag-free Earth's satellite is suggested: to follow the motion of a light body ("particle") near its libration point <math>(L_1 or L_2)\,\!</math> situated near a ball of about <math>500kg\,\!</math> mass. The particle trajectories are studied analytically up to second order deflections from the libration points. Estimations show that the present-day uncertainties in <math>G\,\!</math> and <math>\eta\,\!</math>, and also <math>\alpha\,\!</math> for <math>\Lambda \sim 1\ m\,\!</math> can be reduced by at least two orders of magnitude.
