Abstract :
We report in this paper the frequency comparisons between UTC (IEN) and the Mg standard prototype performed during a period of 420 days. We shall also discuss the implications of our results on testing the time stability of an important product of fundamental constants (g/sub p/m/sub e//m/sub p/) as well as the local position invariance principle.<>
