Searching for new physics through atomic, molecular and optical precision measurements

We briefly review recent experiments in atomic, molecular and optical physics using precision measurements to search for physics beyond the Standard Model.

Description
Summary:We briefly review recent experiments in atomic, molecular and optical physics using precision measurements to search for physics beyond the Standard Model. We consider three main categories of experiments: searches for changes in fundamental constants, measurements of the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron and the fine-structure constant, and searches for an electric dipole moment of the electron.
