In General > s.a. phenomenology
of magnetism [maximum
value of B, plasmas].
@ Tests: Clauser PRA(72)
[semiclassical, experimental limitations]; Sternheim AJP(72)oct-RL;
Drell PhyA(79);
Foot & Stacey PW(90)sep.
@ Field measurements: Compagno & Persico PRA(98) [criticism of
Bohr-Rosenfeld].
@ And electron self-energy: de Souza JPA(97)ht/96; Bovy phy/06/SHPMP
[history].
Lamb Shift > s.a. non-commutative
field theory; quantum equivalence principle.
* Idea: A shift in the
atomic energy levels, due to the effects on the electron self-energy of its
interaction with the quantized (transverse)
electromagnetic
field.
* Experiment: 2000,
It is still the effect that has been measured with the highest precision
in physics;
Now being tested with 91U atoms (p size
uncertainty less important, effect stronger than in lighter atoms), in
which the electron feels an electric field of 1016 V/m

al PRL(00)].
