A high sensitivity test of the Pauli Exclusion Principle for electrons Available to Purchase

One of the fundamental rules of nature and a pillar in the foundation of quantum theory and thus of modern physics is represented by the Pauli Exclusion Principle. We know that this principle is extremely well fulfilled due to many observations like the order of the elements and the stability of matter. Numerous experiments were performed to search for tiny violation of this rule in various systems. The VIP experiment at Gran Sasso underground laboratory is testing the validity of this principle for electrons with very high precision $(order of 10−30).$ The layout of the present experiment, results obtained so far and new ideas to further increase the precision will be presented.
