8 How constant is the fine structure constant α? EXPERIMENTAL Astrophysical:. α/α = (-7.2 ± 1.8) /yr [J. K. Webb, et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, (2001).] THEORETICAL Theories that unify gravity with other forces either allow or necessitate α variation Geophysical: Oklo natural nuclear reactor 1.8 billion years ago:. α/α < /yr Laboratory: H-maser vs. Hg+ microwave clock:. α/α < /yr Rb vs. Cs microwave clocks:. α/α < /yr Hg+ optical vs. Cs microwave clocks:. α/α < /yr
9 20,000 A. α in dysprosium B ν ~ MHz levels A and B are highly sensitive to variations in α Energy (cm -1 ) 0 Ground State ν.. ν ~ Hz α/α. i.e. for α/α ~ /yr. ν~ 2 Hz/yr rf freq. generator E-field plates atomic freq. standard atomic beam fluor. PMT
10 NONLINEAR MAGNETO-OPTICAL OPTICAL ROTATION Goal: Obtain highest possible sensitivity to magnetic fields. F = 0 Use laser light to polarize atoms: (1) Aligns magnetic dipole moments; (2) Creates preferred optical axis. F = 1 M F = -1 M F = 0 M F = +1 Magnetic moments precess in magnetic field: Optical axis rotates causes light polarization to rotate. ϕ = g F µβ/γ rel 1 + (g F µβ/γ rel ) 2

12 Pumping and probing with FM light FM NMOR magnetometry: Phys.Rev.A65, (2002)
13 Precision magetometry and atomic EDM measurement using spin-polarized atoms in a buffer gas at cryogenic temperatures Problem: to measure very small B; to measure electron EDM Paramagnetic atom magnetometer; He buffer gas at T=4K to increase spin-relaxation time to minutes Measuring the Kerr effect in LHe and the LANL neutron EDM experiment Problem: to measure strong electric fields (50kV/cm) inside a bath of LHe at 300mK. Kerr effect: an initially isotropic medium acquires birefringence when electric field is applied, measure this.
