Antiproton magnetic moment determined from the HFS of pHe
2009
Abstract We report a determination of the antiproton magnetic moment, measured in a three-body system, independent of previous experiments. We present results from a systematic study of the hyperfine (HF) structure of antiprotonic helium where we have achieved a precision more than a factor of 10 better than our first measurement. A comparison between the experimental results and three-body quantum electrodynamic (QED) calculations leads to a new value for the antiproton magnetic moment μ s p ¯ = − 2.7862 ( 83 ) μ N , which agrees with the magnetic moment of the proton within 2.9 × 10 − 3 .
