… measured at ambient temperature and pressure as follows:
Quote:
The MENR effect is generated by 4 rods of length LE×B = 20 cm, which combine NdFeB permanent magnets providing a constant transverse magnetic field B = 0.85 T parallel to the light polarization and a pair of floating electrodes supplied by a high voltage amplifier (see inset of Fig. 1): with a gap of 4 mm and a voltage up to 2 kV, the electric field can reach 0.5 MV/m.
…
Our long term goal is to search for the magneto-electric non-reciprocity of quantum vacuum, which is approximately 7 × 10^8 times smaller than what we have measured. Its detection would require fields as high as B = 15 T and E = 20 MV/m, a better cavity with a finesse of 200 000 and a noise level corresponding to the shot-noise level with an injected laser power near 50 mW. All these performances have already been achieved separately, but bringing them together is obviously a very ambitious challenge.

Nothing too outrageous.
