摘要:

电子偶素是研究束缚态QED的理想体系。正电子素的超精细分裂(Ps-HFS,约203 GHz)是一个重要的观测,但所有以前的测量Ps-HFS已间接测量塞曼分裂。磁场的均匀性可能存在未知的系统误差。我们正在尝试使用亚太赫兹辐射直接测量Ps-HFS。我们研制了一套在法布里-珀罗谐振腔中积累高功率(约10 kW)辐射的光学系统,并首次观测到了正电子素超精细跃迁。

英文摘要:

Positronium is an ideal system for the research of the bound state QED. The hyperfine splitting of positronium (Ps-HFS, about 203 GHz) is an important observable but all previous measurements of Ps-HFS had been measured indirectly using Zeeman splitting. There might be the unknown systematic errors on the uniformity of magnetic field. We are trying to measure Ps-HFS directly using sub-THz radiation. We developed an optical system to accumulate high power (about 10 kW) radiation in a Fabry-Pérot resonant cavity and observed the positronium hyperfine transition for the first time.
