Constraints on changes in the proton-electron mass ratio using methanol lines

N. Kanekar, W. Ubachs, K. M. Menten +6

We report Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) absorption spectroscopy in four methanol (CHOH) lines in the gravitational lens towards PKS1830-211. Three of the…

Limits on a Gravitational Field Dependence of the Proton--Electron Mass Ratio from H in White Dwarf Stars

Julija Bagdonaite, Edcel J. Salumbides, Simon P. Preval +4

Spectra of molecular hydrogen (H) are employed to search for a possible proton-to-electron mass ratio () dependence on gravity. The Lyman transitions of H, observed with…

Robust Constraint on a Drifting Proton-to-Electron Mass Ratio at z=0.89 from Methanol Observation at Three Radio Telescopes

Julija Bagdonaite, Mario Daprà, Paul Jansen +5

A limit on a possible cosmological variation of the proton-to-electron mass ratio is derived from methanol (CHOH) absorption lines in the benchmark PKS1830211 lensing ga…

Constraint on a variation of the proton-to-electron mass ratio from H2 absorption towards quasar Q2348-011

Julija Bagdonaite, Michael T. Murphy, Lex Kaper +1

Molecular hydrogen (H2) absorption features observed in the line-of-sight to Q2348-011 at redshift zabs = 2.426 are analysed for the purpose of detecting a possible variation of th…

Search for cosmological mu variation from high redshift H2 absorption; a status report

Wim Ubachs, Julija Bagdonaite, Michael T. Murphy +2

Observations of H2 spectra in the line-of-sight of distant quasars may reveal a variation of the proton-electron mass ratio mu=m_p/m_e at high redshift, typically for z>2. Currentl…
