Teil 4. Stephan Schiller (Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf): Precision Spectroscopy of Cold Molecular Hydrogen Ions - Towards a Determination of the Electron-to-Proton Mass Ratio
The hydrogen molecular ion is a three-body system and thus a fundamental system in quantum mechanics, and has been the subject of extensive theoretical work for over 80 years, with constantly increasing accuracy. The experimental efforts on high-resolution spectroscopy have been more limited, but have yielded several precise measurements of energies. We have developed a molecular hydrogen ion experiment that applies modern techniques of cold gaseous matter manipulation with the aim of reaching significantly higher precision in rotational and vibrational spectroscopy. The overall goal is to use the hydrogen molecular ion for tests of quantum electrodynamics (QED) and the determination of fundamental constants, in particular the electron-to-proton mass ratio. With this goal, our experiment explores a new avenue in the emerging field of fundamental physics with cold molecules.
