This project aims to measure the tune-out and magic wavelengths for the helium atom to challenge quantum electrodynamics. The project will use a technique to measure the potential confining ultracold atoms which, combined with high accuracy wavelength determination, will enable measurements of unprecedented precision. This project aims to advance fundamental understanding of atomic structure, and yield new insights with potential benefits including more accurate atomic clocks.
