Experimental Status of Gravitational-Strength Forces in the Sub-Centimeter Regime

نویسنده

  • Joshua C. Long
چکیده

We review the experimental constraints on additional macroscopic Yukawa forces for interaction ranges below 1 cm, and summarize several theoretical predictions of new forces in this region. An experiment using 1 kHz mechanical oscillators as test masses should be sensitive to much of the parameter space covered by the predictions.

Gravitational Experiment below 1 Millimeter and Comment on Shielded Casimir Backgrounds for Experiments in the Micron Regime

We present the status of an experimental test for gravitational strength forces below 1 mm. Our experiment uses small 1 kilohertz oscillators as test masses, with a stiff counducting shield between them to suppress backgrounds. At the present sensitivity of approximately 10 times gravitational strength, we see no evidence for new forces with interaction ranges between 75 μm and 1 mm. While the ...

Towards an Effective Particle-String Resolution of the Cosmological Constant Problem

The Cosmological Constant Problem is re-examined from an effective field theory perspective. While the connection between gravity and particle physics has not been experimentally probed in the quantum regime, it is severely constrained by the successes of Standard Model quantum field theory at short distances, and classical General Relativity at large distances. At first sight, it appears that ...

The non–perturbative regime of cosmic structure formation

This paper focusses on the barely understood gap between the weakly nonlinear regime of structure formation and the onset of the virialized regime. While the former is accessed through perturbative calculations and the latter through virialization conditions incorporating dynamical stresses that arise in collisionless self–gravitating systems due to velocity dispersion forces, the addressed reg...

Effect of Rhythmic Neural, Musculoskeletal Exercises on Sleep Quality in Armed Forces Retirement

Background and Aim: Due to the increasing number of Armed Forces Retirement and an increase in the number of cases of sleep disorder by age, sleep disorder is a common problem in the Armed Forces Retirement. For Armed Forces Retirement, the disease and its treatment can have long-term negative effects on their Relaxation Deepening and sleep Quality. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the...
