精细结构常数稳定性的实验室检验
Testing the Stability of the Fine Structure Constant in the Laboratory
摘要:
在这篇综述中,我们讨论了过去十年的进展,在测试的精细结构常数$α$的可能的时间变化。原子样品制备、激光光谱学和光频测量的进步导致测量不确定性迅速降低。最终,实验室检测成为目前检测$α$可能变异的最敏感工具。我们解释了帮助实现这一目标的方法和技术。
英文摘要:
In this review we discuss the progress of the past decade in testing for a possible temporal variation of the fine structure constant $α$. Advances in atomic sample preparation, laser spectroscopy and optical frequency measurements led to rapid reduction of measurement uncertainties. Eventually laboratory tests became the most sensitive tool to detect a possible variation of $α$ at the present epoch. We explain the methods and technologies that helped make this possible.
