Long-range acceleration induced by a scalar field external to gravity and the indication from Pioneer 10/11, Galileo and Ulysses Data
J. P. Mbelek, M. Lachièze-Rey
Abstract
We suggest an explanation of the "Pioneer effect" based on the interaction of the spacecraft with a long-range scalar field, ϕ. The scalar field under consideration is external to gravity, coupled to the ordinary matter and undergoes obedience to the weak equivalence principle. In the weak fields limit it result a long-range acceleration aP, asymptotically constant within the region of the solar system hitherto crossed by the spacecraft.
