Measurement of the free precession of nuclear spins in optically pumped ground-state 30l Hg atoms has allowed a test of Weinberg's nonlinear generalization of quantum mechanics. Shifts among the three resolved precession frequencies in the spin-\ system were studied as a function of the projection of spin polarization along the precession axis. Our results set an upper limit on
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
