    "abstract": "We have built an atom interferometer and, by applying an electric field on\none of the two interfering beams, we have measured the static electric\npolarizability of lithium with a 0.66 % uncertainty. Our experiment is similar\nto an experiment done on sodium in 1995 by D. Pritchard and co-workers, with\nseveral improvements: the electric field can be calculated analytically and our\nphase measurements are very accurate. This experiment illustrates the extreme\nsensitivity of atom interferometry: when the atom enters the electric field,\nits velocity increases and the fractional change, equal to 4 x 10^(-9) for our\nlargest field, is measured with a 10^(-3) accuracy.",
