Description
The fundamental interactions theories can be verified at the low energy scale
by comparison of accurate calculations of atomic transition frequencies with experimental values.
Helium atom has several, so called forbidden transitions, which can be accurately measured.
I will present results of very accurate calculations of these transitions with comparison
to the most recent measurements and demonstrate intriguing discrepancies
for all the transitions involving D-states. These discrepancies, most probably,
will require further experimental verifications.
