Cosmological Constant Problem

Open full text 7 citations

Abstract

The cosmological constant problem is reviewed and a possible quantum gravity resolution is proposed. A space satellite Eötvös experiment for zero-point vacuum energy is proposed to see whether Casimir vacuum energy falls in a gravitational field at the same rate as ordinary matter.
