New constraints on varying alpha

We present a summary of recent constraints on the value of the fine-structure constant at the epoch of decoupling from the recent observations made by the Wilkinson microwave anisotropy probe (WMAP) satellite. Within the set of models considered, a variation of the value of alpha at decoupling with...
