Abstract
The VIP (Violation of the Pauli Exclusion Principle) experiment is dedicated to check the validity of one of the basic principles of modern physics. This investigation is done searching for anomalous X-rays emitted by copper atoms in a conductor: any detection of these anomalous X-rays would mark a Pauli forbidden transition. VIP is currently taking data at the Gran Sasso underground laboratories, and its scientific goal is to improve by three-four orders of magnitude the previous limit on the probability of Pauli violating transitions, bringing it into the 10-29/-30 region. The new experimental results and future plans are presented. © 2009 IOP Publishing Ltd.
