Resolution of Single Spin-Flips of a Single Proton
arXiv:1303.1359 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.110.140405
Abstract
The spin magnetic moment of a single proton in a cryogenic Penning trap was coupled to the particle's axial motion with a superimposed magnetic bottle. Jumps in the oscillation frequency indicate spin-flips and were identified using a Bayesian analysis.
