摘要
In this paper we present the realization of further steps toward the measurement of the magnetic birefringence of a vacuum using pulsed fields. After describing our experiment, we report the calibration of our apparatus using nitrogen gas and discuss the precision of our measurement giving a detailed error budget. Our best present vacuum upper limit is Delta n <= 5.0 x 10(-20) T-2 per 4 ms acquisition time. We finally discuss the improvements necessary to reach our final goal.
