| Zusammenfassung | Within the framework Cosmic Vision 2015-2025, and as part of the Fundamental Physics Theme "Exploring the limits of contemporary physics", we propose to carry out a space mission to test with high precision aspects of the Equivalence Principle (Local Position Invariance, Local Lorentz Invariance) and a number of Predictions of General Relativity (Gravitational Redshift, Post-Newtonian orbital effects). The science goals include the most precise test of a General Relativity prediction, with a relative accuracy of 10-9. The significant improvement in accuracy of the tests will be possible by using ultrastable optical clocks and ultraprecise time transfer, combined with drag-free satellite technology. |
