Hyperfine Structure-Measurement in Alkali-metal Atoms and Ytterbium Atom

Atomic precision measurements provide a strong testing ground for new theoretical ideas and fundamental laws of physics. Measurement of the Lamb shift in the hydrogen atom is one of the best examples towards this -it resulted in the birth of QED in 1949 by Dyson, Feynman, Schwinger and Tomonaga. The...
