This repository contains datasets of constraints on spin-dependent exotic interactions, also referred to as the spin-dependent fifth force (SDFF), mediated by the exchange of a single boson of mass M between fermions X and Y. The fifth force refers to a new force beyond the existing four fundamental forces of nature. A SDFF is a force that depends on the spins of the involved fermions, similar to the magnetic force.
Figure 1: An exotic boson carrying a fifth force that depends on the spins of the involved fermions.The interactions are categorized into the following types:
- Axial-vector/vector, axial-vector/axial-vector, vector/vector.
- Pseudoscalar/scalar, pseudoscalar/pseudoscalar, scalar/scalar.
- Tensor/tensor, pseudotensor/tensor, and pseudotensor/pseudotensor.
As a reference, one may consult the format of the exotic potentials presented in the RMP review: Spin-Dependent Exotic Interactions.
The repository serves as a live webpage designed to present the latest experimental results. For contributions or to include your new results, please feel free to contact Dr. Lei Cong (congllzu@gmail.com), Dr. Wei Ji (weiji001@uni-mainz.de), or Prof. Dmitry Budker (budker@uni-mainz.de).
