一种探测中程力的新方法

Experimental Detection of Intermediate-Range Interaction

本文提出了一个用浮球扭摆组成的差动加速度系统探测中程力的实验方法.该方法综合了精密扭称和Thieberger浮球实验的优点,因而可在更高精度上探测中程力.文章中的近似计算表明,当实验在山脚进行时,山坡成60°角时的观测效应约为悬崖时的94%.因此,只要稍微提高系统的灵敏度,就可降低对实验地点的苛刻要求.

A new method, the dfferential accelerometer method, for detecting the intermediate-range interaction is proposed. With both the precise torsion balance and differential accelerometer experiment done by Thieberger, higher accuracy can be expected. Approximate calculation shows that the observation effect of a mountain with a slope of 60° is about 94% that of a cliff if the experiment is to be carried out at the foot of a mountain. This approximate result implies that the requirement on the experiment point can be more flexible if the sensitivity of the system can be slightly improved.
