STEP as a Decisive Test of MOND on Earth

Abstract

We review and emphasize the importance of the Satellite Test of the Equivalence Principle (STEP) in probing one of the most successful and popular alternative theories to dark matter known as Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND), on Earth. This would be achieved with no modification of STEP's current design and sensitivity and if MOND exists STEP could in principle easily detect it.
