We present a new framework to study the time variation of fundamental constants in a model-independent way. Model independence implies more free parameters than assumed in previous studies. Using data from atomic clocks based on $^{87}$Sr,…

Using adiabatic expansions formalism, upper bounds for interband transitions for Bloch electrons in slowly varying in time electric fields are obtained. These bounds imply the validity of one-band approximation on long time scales.
