Scientific paper

Possible laboratory tests of the Newtonian gravitational interaction between bodies moving at velocities approaching the speed of light with respect to each other are discussed which employ high-energy storage rings. The formalism of Newtonian gravity for a bunched particle beam in a storage ring delivering a periodic impulse to a massive stationary body is reviewed, and the response of a Weber-type gravitational antenna to a high-energy storage ring is calculated. Electromagnetic cavity devices for the detection of the gravitational interaction are then examined, and estimates of the signal backgrounds within them are presented. Alternative schemes for the detection of the effect of the massive body on the beam are also considered. It is concluded that the effect is detectable at the limit of present technology with the storage rings currently under construction.
