Measuring the fine structure constant on a white dwarf surface; a detailed analysis of Fe V absorption in G191-B2B
The gravitational potential phi = GM/Rc^2 at the surface of the white dwarf G191-B2B is 10,000 times stronger than that at the Earth's surface. Numerous photospheric absorption features are detected, making this a suitable environment to test theories in which the fundamental constants depend on gravity. We have measured the …
