State of the art in the determination of the fine structure constant and the ratio
Pierre Cladé, François Nez, François Biraben +1
The fine structure constant and the ratio between the Planck constant and the unified atomic mass are keystone constants for the determination of other funda…
The proton radius puzzle
J. J. Krauth, K. Schuhmann, M. Abdou Ahmed +49
High-precision measurements of the proton radius from laser spectroscopy of muonic hydrogen demonstrated up to six standard deviations smaller values than obtained from electron-pr…
Laser Spectroscopy of Muonic Atoms and Ions
Randolf Pohl, François Nez, Luis M. P. Fernandes +44
Laser spectroscopy of the Lamb shift (2S-2P energy difference) in light muonic atoms or ions, in which one negative muon is bound to a nucleus, has been performed. The measur…
Experiments towards resolving the proton charge radius puzzle
A. Antognini, K. Schuhmann, F. D. Amaro +34
We review the status of the proton charge radius puzzle. Emphasis is given to the various experiments initiated to resolve the conflict between the muonic hydrogen results and the…
Theoretical Analysis of a Large Momentum Beamsplitter using Bloch Oscillations
Pierre Cladé, Thomas Plisson, Saïda Guellati-Khélifa +2
In this paper, we present the implementation of Bloch oscillations in an atomic interferometer to increase the separation of the two interfering paths. A numerical model, in very g…
Atom interferometry based on light pulses : application to the high precision measurement of the ratio h/m and the determination of the fine structure constant
Malo Cadoret, Estefania De Mirandes, Pierre Cladé +4
In this paper we present a short overview of atom interferometry based on light pulses. We discuss different implementations and their applications for high precision measurements.…
Precise determination of h/m_Rb using Bloch oscillations and atomic interferometry: a mean to deduce the fine structure constant
Malo Cadoret, Estefania De Mirandes, Pierre Cladé +5
We use Bloch oscillations to transfer coherently many photon momenta to atoms. Then we can measure accurately the ratio h/m_Rb and deduce the fine structure constant alpha. The vel…
Spectroscopy of atomic hydrogen. How is the Rydberg constant determined?
François Biraben
This article presents a review of the most recent theoretical and experimental results in hydrogen. We particularly emphasize the methods used to deduce the Rydberg constant $R_\in…
