Abstract
The authors test the Continuous Spontaneous Localization model using a magnetically levitated micro-mechanical oscillator with ultra-high coherences. At room temperature, they obtain a new upper bound on the collapse rate improving by more than two orders of magnitude the previous results at the same working frequency.
