The Baryon Antibaryon Symmetry Experiment (BASE) planned at the Antiproton Decelerator (AD) at CERN is dedicated to compare fundamental properties of proton and antiproton with high precision. Such matter/antimatter comparisons are sensitive tests of the CPT theorem. As one of these quantities, the g-factors of both particles are currently only compared with a moderate precision of δ g/g = 3 × 10−3, limited by the antiproton value. Recently, we succeeded in measuring the proton g-factor with a relative precision of 8.9 × 10−6 using the continuous Stern-Gerlach effect on a single proton in a cryogenic Penning trap. Using the same method on a single antiproton, we aim for a 100-fold improved CPT test with baryons. By applying the so-called double-trap technique, BASE ultimately aims for a relative precision of 10−9 or better, resulting at least in a factor of one million improved CPT test. In this talk, the BASE experiment will be presented.
