  This paper investigates a new experimental framework to test the braneworld
hypothesis. Recent theoretical results have shown the possibility of matter
exchange between branes under the influence of suitable magnetic vector
potentials. It is shown that the required conditions might be achieved with
present-day technology. The experiment uses a source of pulsed and coherent
electromagnetic radiation and relies on the Hansch frequency comb technique
well-known in ultrahigh-precision spectroscopy. A good matter candidate for
testing the hypothesis is a polarized ultracold neutron gas for which the
number of swapped neutrons is measured.
