Listen "Searching for New Forces Using Torsion Pendula"
Episode Synopsis
Equivalence principle violation, deviations from the inverse-square
law of gravity, and long-range interactions between particle spins
o�er powerful tests of beyond-the-standard-model physics. Using a
torsion pendulum, a technique that dates to the 18th century, is still
the most sensitive way to search for these signatures of new physics.
I will talk about how the experiments are done and give an update on the current and future status of such torsion balance experiments in the Eot-Wash group.
