The Standard Model describes the fundamental interactions and properties of elementary particles. Being a Lorentz-invariant theory, the absolute values of the properties like charge, mass, and magnetic moment, of matter and antimatter-conjugates, are invariant under the combined charge, parity, and time transformation. Any violation of this CPT symmetry would indicate new physics. The BASE experiment tests this symmetry at lowest energy and with highest precision. We use an advanced multi-Penning trap system to compare charge-to-mass ratios and magnetic moments of single protons and antiprotons, respectively.

Our aimed relative precision is 1 ppb (10−9) for the magnetic moment measurement. Last year, we succeeded in measuring the charge-to-mass ratio of the antiproton and the proton [1], confirming CPT invariance down to the atto-electron volt scale with a measurement precision of 69 parts per trillion. Next, we will focus on magnetic moment measurements.

In my talk, I will present the techniques and recent results of our measurements at BASE and give an outlook on future improvements.
