Highly accurate H2 Lyman and Werner band laboratory measurements and an improved constraint on a cosmological variation of the proton-to-electron mass ratio.
Transition wavelengths on a large set of H2 Lyman and Werner band spectral lines have been obtained at an accuracy of 5 x 10(-8), using a narrow band tunable extreme ultraviolet laser. The data are used to determine a constraint on a possible cosmological variation of the proton-to-electron mass ratio (mu=Mp/me) from a comparison with highly redshifted spectral data of quasistellar objects, yie...
متن کاملCurrent status of astronomical observations on possible cosmological variations of the proton - to - electron mass ratio μ = m p / m e
Astronomical constraints on a possible cosmological variation of the proton-to-electron mass ratio μ = mp/me are discussed. The analysis of H2 lines observed in the spectra of distant quasars Q 0405-443 (zem = 3.02) and Q 0347-383 (zem = 3.22) is performed [1] using, partly, very precise values of H2 frequencies from new laboratory measurements [2] and sensitivity coefficients from new accurate...
متن کاملLaboratory Limits on Temporal Variations of Fundamental Constants: An Update. arXiv preprint physics/0611088
Precision comparisons of different atomic frequency standards over a period of a few years can be used for a sensitive search for temporal variations of fundamental constants. We present recent frequency measurements of the 688 THz transition in the 171 Yb + ion. For this transition frequency a record over six years is now available, showing that a possible frequency drift relative to a cesium ...
متن کاملImproved laboratory values of the H2 Lyman and Werner lines for constraining time variation of the proton-to-electron mass ratio.
Two distinct high-accuracy laboratory spectroscopic investigations of the H2 molecule are reported. Anchor lines in the EF1Sigmag+-X1Sigmag+ system are calibrated by two-photon deep-UV Doppler-free spectroscopy, while independent Fourier-transform spectroscopic measurements are performed that yield accurate spacings in the B1Sigmau+-EF1Sigmag+ and I1Pig-C1Piu systems. From combination differenc...
متن کاملThe Temperature and Mass Effects on Dust Grain Electrical Potential in Dusty Plasma
By orbit-limited motion (OLM) theory and the kinetic model, currents carried by electronsand ions on the dust grain are obtained and the effects of temperature and drift velocity of ions on thedust grain electrical potential are considered. The calculations were performed for finding the role of densities of dust grains and ions on the dust grain electrical potential which is the ma...
