Electron Studies and QED

这个建议是为“电子研究和量子电动力学”。 它涉及隔离电子，存储它们，并研究它们在环境以受控方式变化时的行为。 控制电子环境的装置的发展允许新一代的电子和正电子磁矩的测量。 与量子电动力学（QED）理论一起，这将为精细结构常数提供最准确的值。 当精细结构常数用独立的方法测量时，QED将受到最严格的检验。 氦光谱测量建议用于此目的。 进一步的测量包括对单电子振荡器回旋运动中由于特殊相对论效应引起的非线性的研究。

This proposal is for, "Electron Studies and QED". It involves isolating electrons, storing them, and studying their behavior when their environment is varied in a controlled manner. The development of the apparatus to control the environment of the electron allows a new generation of measurements of the magnetic moment of the electron and positron. Together with quantum electrodynamics (QED) theory, this will provide the most accurate value for the fine structure constant. When the fine structure constant is measured by an independent method, then QED will be subjected to its most stringent test. A helium spectroscopic measurement is proposed for this purpose. Further measurements involve the study to nonlinearities due to special relativistic effects in the cyclotron motion of a one electron oscillator.
