Abstract

The environment on the Moon has numerous features that make it interesting not only for the study of astrophysical phenomena, but also elementary particle physics. In fact, vacuum conditions, low gravity, and exposure to a relatively intense irradiation of cosmic protons covering a large energy spectrum, make the lunar environment attractive for a wide range of particle physics experiments otherwise unworkable on Earth. We suggest one such experiment measuring the difference between the amount of CP violation as measured on the surface of the Earth and on the surface of the Moon, which could indicate quantum gravitational effects
