The hyperfine puzzle of strong-field bound-state QED
2019
The hyperfine splitting in heavy highly charged ions provide the means to test QED in extremely strong magnetic fields. In order to provide a meaningful test, the splitting has to be measured in H-like and Li-like ions to remove uncertainties from nuclear structure. This has been achieved at the experimental storage ring ESR but a discrepancy to the theoretical prediction of more than 7σ was observed. We report on these measurements as well as on NMR measurements that were performed to solve this issue.
