摘要

We report a constraint on the cosmological variation of the proton g-factor, gp. By comparing the measured redshifts between Hi 21 cm and OH 18 cm lines observed with the newly commissioned Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST) toward PKS 1413+135 at z = 0.24671, we obtain Δgp/gp = (−4.3 ± 2.5) × 10−5, which is more than two orders of magnitude more sensitive than previous constraints. In addition, we obtain sensitive constraints of Δ(μα2)/(μα2) = (2.0 ± 1.2) × 10−5 and Δ(μα2g p 0.64 )/(μα2g p 0.64 ) = (−4.7 ± 1.9) × 10−6.
