Development of a test of Newton's law of gravitation at micrometer distances using a superconducting spherical torsion balance
Many theories associated with quantum gravity, such as string theory, predict violations of inverse square law (ISL) of gravity at sub millimetre distances. To search for such experimental signatures we developed a magnetically levitated cryogenic torsion balance, the SSTB, and a set of masses with...
