How to test SME with space missions ?

Abstract

In this communication, we focus on possibilities to constrain SME coefficients using Cassini and Messenger data. We present simulations of radioscience observables within the framework of the SME, identify the linear combinations of SME coefficients the observations depend on and determine the sensitivity of these measurements to the SME coefficients. We show that these datasets are very powerful for constraining SME coefficients.
