Abstract:This report studies possible gravitational effects on measurements of fundamental physical observables such as the fine structure constant and the lepton magnetic moment. Although a static gravitational potential does not contribute to physical observables owing to Einstein's equivalent principle, a dynamic degree with finite momentum transfer can contribute to them. In other words, a laboratory frame fixed on the Earth is not an inertial system; thus, Earth's gravity can contribute to local observables. We in… Show more
