The BASE collaboration performs high-precision measurements of the fundamental properties of protons and antiprotons in a multi Penning-trap system. Such measurements challenge the Standard Model of particle physics, since any deviation in proton and antiproton properties would hint to yet unknown CPT-odd interactions that would act differently on matter and antimatter-conjugates.
We recently reported a measurement of the antiproton magnetic moment with 1.5 ppb uncertainty (68 % C.L.) based on the frequency ratio of the Larmor frequency to the cyclotron frequency measured with two single antiprotons. We apply a novel two-particle multi-trap scheme, which enhances the data accumulation rate compared to the double trap method. In this way, we improved limits on CPT-odd interactions on antiprotons by a factor 350.
