Hydrogen ‘tests’ basic physics more precisely after theory update
Modern experimental techniques can measure the gaps between the different energy levels of the H2 molecule with a relative accuracy of about one part in 100 billion; the question is whether the theories used to ‘calculate’ these energy levels match with what experiments have found, and these calculations are very difficult
