The Pauli Exclusion Principle (PEP) is one of the main
cornerstones of the Quantum Theory. Violation of the PEP, albeit small, could be
motivated by physics beyond the Standard Model which entail extra space
dimensions, violation of the Lorentz invariance, non-commutative space-time.
These scenarios can be experimentally constrained with stat-of-the-art X-ray
spectroscopy, searching for...
Precision measurements on molecular quantum systems have developed into a powerful way to explore new physics. Such measurements are currently the most sensitive way to probe an effective asymmetry in the charge distribution of the electron - its electric dipole moment. Through a measurement of this property, limits can be set on possible extensions of the Standard model of particle physics....
