Furthermore, we use these constraints together with other astronomical and geophysical bounds from the late universe to test Barrow-Magueijo's model for the variation in m_e. From our analysis we obtain -0.615 < Gω/c^4 < -0.045 (3σinterval) in disagreement with the result obtained in the original paper.Accepted for publication in ApJAstrophysicsGeneral Relativity and Quantum CosmologyHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyTime variation of the electron mass in the early universe and the Barrow-Magueijo modeltext
