摘要：

Laser spectroscopy at the heavy ion storage ring TSR in Heidelberg allows for precision experiments testing the limits of the special theory of relativity. With an optical LAMBDA-type three-level system of Li-7+ the Doppler shift has been measured by saturation spectroscopy as a test of the time dilatation factor gamma = (1 - beta2)-1/2 at an ion velocity of upsilon = 6.4% c. A precision of DELTA nu/nu < 9 x 10(-9) has been obtained, which sets a second-order limit of 1.1 x 10(-6) for any deviation from the time dilatation factor. The fourth-order limit of this deviation is set below 2.7 x 10(-4) by the present experiment. These limits are given at a 1 sigma confidence level.
