  • First Transport of Antiprotons in Our Open Penning Trap System BASE-STEP

    First Transport of Antiprotons in Our Open Penning Trap System BASE-STEP The fractional resolution achieved in our precision tests of matter–antimatter symmetry – comparing the fundamental properties of antiprotons and protons – is improving rapidly. The most precise test of CPT invariance in the baryon sector, done in our trap system, has reached a fractional

  • 11-fold improved measurement of the proton magnetic moment

    11-fold improved measurement of the proton magnetic moment Today we report in SCIENCE on a new measurement of the proton magnetic moment in units of the nuclear magneton. The updated value gp/2=2.792 847 344 62 (82) is consistent with our previous best measurement, but improves the precision by a factor of 11. The measurement was
